Crazy geocachers like myself like to crawl around the woods looking for boxes filled with odd little things, and if we are especially lucky, we may find a geocoin. What is a geocoin, you ask? Well, it is coin made especially for geocaching that has its movements tracked via a unique serial number on geocaching.com! Woah there. I know, I'm getting a bit geeky. Before your eyes glaze over and you move to the next thread, Let me say that my special hand-made ceramic coins are tikis! Yessir! Sure, they are really made for geocaching nuts like myself, but I thought TC folks may like to get a peek at them as well. You can get them at my etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/VanTiki Mahalo!
