#300 of 365: 500th Find

Tonight I found my 500th geocache! It is quite a milestone and I am super proud of myself. To commemorate that many finds my friend RJ gave me a geocoin. A geocoin is a small, usually metal, token that has a tracking code on it. You can then place the geocoin in a geocache and other cachers will pick it up and take it to another geocache and log that they placed it there. That way your geocoin can travel and you can track it and see where it goes. My new geocoin is so pretty I don't know if I'm going to be able to part with it though. The coin also came with a smaller pin that looks identical, so maybe I'll use that as my geocoin I send out into the caching world.
