I attached pix of both of the items. I've made business sized magnets (great for placing in ammo cans) and other items as well.

NativTxn is send you a PM, but I'll add a coles notes version here.

One of (the many) things I would like to do moving forward is to have a Opencaching merchandise inventory. This was brought up in the early days of the site and cause of restrictions it was not practicable at the time. Now it is. I am able to store and ship from my home.

Thnaks, DG, for highlighting OCNA caches on G+ and Facebook (and including one of mine). Every bit of exposure helps. :)

I've just posted the following on my local Maryland and Northern Virginia caching forums. I thought that some of you, in certain regions, might find this a good way to promote the site in your area.

Within 150 miles of Laurel, MD (approx the center of the map), there are now 100 OCUS hides - at least 83 of these are unique to the site.

I invite you to sign up and seek these caches. No need to jump ship. I actively seek caches on five caching sites, now. If you find an OCUS cache you plan to seek, there will be links on the cache page to find nearby caches on other sites, including geocaching.com.

So far, between DC, MD, VA & DE, there are caches hidden by the following cachers you may know...

CrazySanMan, CycleAngela, czar7, donbadabon, DudleyGrunt, flyingmoose, Mother Wolf, networkcacher, Pirate Rat, rob3k, TheLostDogs

Check out my new SigMarx and Replicoins from GxProxy. The GeoKrety and Opencaching.US are now stock images that anyone can use on their engraved items.

Yep, we (GxPROXY.com) have now added both logos to our options list and they are available on ANY item ordered. The Repicoins are $3.50 if you furnish a GeoKrety number or other. We are trying to promote ALL forms including Munzee. We have items available to the World as we have a number of cachers in Germany and Australia that even have stores for cachers.

If there is ever an item that you would like to see added - email us with the suggestion. We will be adding the Tick Key remover with ALL Logos later this week.

Thanks for asking and pushing us Debbie. LOVE your new items and so glad we could help.. :D :D :D

I think I will want to try a couple of the Mighty Megas with the OCUS logo on them to give as door prizes in upcoming Events. Those are super cool cache containers! GxProxy has the photos up of the new designs on the SigMarx Super Deal page. http://www.shop.gxproxy.com/SigMarx-Sup ... 000020.htm. Look at the center picture and click to enlarge it to see the details.

OK, Beverly...I know you're busy getting ready for Geocoin Fest...but it's DENISE, not DEBBIE. (That's my evil twin). :D

I talked to TheBadCop earlier, this evening, for a short "year in review" interview about OpenCaching North America for the Caching in the NorthWest podcast.
