This is my last night in Maine (from Alabama). I've been in Portland this week with a teacher workshop. I'm also hopeful to have found a few geocaches, including the oldest-Fort Williams. I've never attended an event in Maine - I only have 12 finds in your state (earthcache, traditional and virtual). I also am hoping to add the other cache types. I was optimistic an event might take place while I was here, but time has run out, so I am posting one.
Let's meet at the listed coordinates at 4 pm. I'll be walking over from my hotel. At 4:30 the event will end...will we spot Bigfoot? If you are interested in the new Geocaching souvenir challenge... here's the scoop from Groundspeak: Recently, 13 sightings of magical creatures and otherworldly beings have been reported. Your challenge is to look for these creatures in their natural habitats and confirm the existence of as many as you can. From June 27 through July 25, earn up to 13 mythical creature souvenirs by finding geocaches or attending events. Earn a point for every cache or event you log. Each Hidden Creature souvenir is valued at a certain number of points. Once you reach that amount, earn the associated souvenir. View your Hidden Creatures progress in the Geocaching® app or on the Hidden Creatures site If you find one geocache or attend one event, you earn the Bigfoot souvenir. When you find two more caches you earn the Fairy souvenir. Simply sign the log for this event and you will earn the Bigfoot souvenir! An easy smiley. At 4:30 the event will end and maybe you can offer some ideas for how to spend my last night in town. There's a lot going on in the area tonight. Maybe the Ice Cream Train, if its as hot there as it was at the farm today (100+ heat index). Or if there's a geocache I missed that you think I should get-then maybe geo run is in order..
I'll have some goodies from Alabama and a few prizes, maybe some travel bugs. If four is too early for your work schedule, message me if you want to join me on my last night in Maine We will likely wrap it up early-my flight leaves at 6 am.
