Nefga's Rally Round the Campfire

Today we went to the Nefga Rally Round the Campfire event held by Legna and sOulbAit. It was an event in Palatka to hold the elections for this year's board. Tony and I caravaned down there with StressMaster, and we cached along the way of course. After a while we caught up with Caraloopy at a cache (which I found, yay!) We ended up with 11 new caches before we finally headed down to the event around 5:30 pm. In the picture below everyone was looking for a cache called Home of the Triple S by Federation. There is Tony looking under the bench, Caraloopy sitting on the other one, Stressmaster in the grey shirt looking, Hikemeister in the blue shirt and Hike Jr. in the white shirt. The other boys are the StressBoys, as I like to call them. :)

Carlee was very relieved once we got to the event because we finally took her out of the carseat for good. lol... she was getting pretty fussy from having to sit in it for so long. It was so much fun to see everyone again. It felt like forever since we had been to an event! There was a GeoPoker game, where everyone who wanted to play got a card and had to hold it on their forehead (but couldn't look at what it is). Then they had to walk around and try to make a pair with someone without talking... lol... anyway, Tony and the person he paired up with ended up winning because they had the highest combination (no one got a pair) with a King and an Eight. It was pretty funny. Here he is trying to pick his prize... (there's another StressBoy, what a ham, lol)

So, we ate, talked, traded travel bugs, logged a bunch of new coins (for new icons!!!), voted our new board members, and talked some more. I had so much fun! Carlee really enjoyed it too, I think. She loved being held by and talked to by everyone. Oh, and we won two raffle items! Tony must be good luck, because I never win anything! lol... we won a ready to hide cache, and a travel bug tag. So after the day was over, we ended up getting to 591 caches, and Lil' Sunshine's up to 87. Below is a group picture of everyone.

Here's a show of the event that Zephyrus put together. It's really cool.
