The real definition of a wife is so much more. I will fall short on this description, but with that being said let me tell you what my definition of a wife is;
1) A Friend
2) Your Best Friend
3) The Love Of Your Life
4) The Woman you can't Live Without
5) The Woman you Would Gladly Lay your Life Down For
6) The Mother you Always Knew she Would BE
7) A Perfect Partner in Life (for the good times and bad)
8) Someone Who Supports you
9) Someone who keeps you from making a fool out of yourself
10) Someone to build a life with to grow old with
11) Falling deeper in love with her each day you awake and see her next to you
12) ...............
Now for a little more on my Wife (Mrs Hooked On U or Tracy Lynn Tuttle). She was Born Nov. 13, 1966 in Johnson City, New York. She lived in New Jersey for the first 4 years then moved to Wayne Mi where she graduated high school from Wayne Memorial in 1984. We met At Ford And became friends over the years. Found out we had a lot in common. Eventually we started dating then engaged and then on December 3, 2011 we married. She makes me laugh, smile and enjoy life. She supports me thru the challenging times in life keeping me from turning bad situations worse. She loves to take walks, ride bikes, go fishing, go camping, go caching and love our 4 kids Chelsea, Colleen, Don III and John. We Started Caching in May of 2011 but didn't really get Hooked until Oct 2011. We had a little over 100 finds when we started the ODS series 3 days later we had finished 98% of it. That is when we really got Hooked we started finding parks and walking/biking trials to cache. We have be obsessed every since. Our best day caching was 120 on the B.R.R.P.T trail it was a Driving power trial. Our best day on bikes was 117 on the M.O.T trail. That day we might have hit 150 if my wife wouldn't of used good judgement and realized we had to ride back to the car and get off the trial before dark. We hooked up the last bike with flashlights. She keeps me responsible. We have seen so many awesome things together while caching. A few of them We saw a tree fall in the woods and bounce 6 to 8 feet when it hit the ground. We had a fox jump up on a board walk at our feet. The fox looked at us and us at him like where did you come from. We have seen some awesome parks. Found things that we wouldn't had seen if it hadn't been for caching. We even got up close and personal with a turkey vulture bouncing off the windshield of the motorcycle and then Tracy's helmet. Thats one big bird. These are only a few of the reasons I LOVE MY WIFE.
Remember, this is a marsh....If you are intending to hunt for the caches or explore the trails, please come prepared with boots/old shoes (not sandals or flip-flops), long pants, and insect repellent. This time of year in the woods of South Eastern Michigan there is poison ivy, ticks and mosquitoes a plenty! Due to the changing seasons in Michigan, the D/T may vary at different times of the year. While searching for this cache, YOU MAY ENCOUNTER WATER (it is a marsh after all.)
You must physically sign the log to claim the find so, BRING YOUR OWN PEN. Failure to do so may result in the deletion of your log. We do check occasionally. The cache started with a pen and SWAG but, no guarantees that it will be there! If you take something.....leave something. Please trade fairly!
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THE STAMP OR THE INK PAD!
