Not quite ready for Medicare yet, but moving up the list. It's a race to see if I get a golden ammo can first or a golden parachute.

Grizzflyer ran into a log from the other The Bearclaws cachers and it made me think of this thread so I thought I would bump it up for the new members.

Some of you already know how we came up with our name. It did not come about because of a donkey but is simply a combination of my wifes name and my name. I am Justin (J) and my wife is Kassandra (Kass) and together we form J-Kass.

I seem to find more than "my fair share" of four leaf clovers. SOem of you may have laminated ones from me...I also collect items with 4 leaf clovers on them, and use them as swag.

I've always been a Cleveland Browns Fan! I know, I know! Choosing a name was difficult since while in the Navy I was called Sparky, in the Guard i've been called Frenchy, Sparky, Fish stick and an assortment of other names. I wanted to pick my name so I went with Orange Dawg, plus I saw the names Good Dog and BlackBrownDog so I felt comfortable with it! If you see me on the trail i'm usually wearing a Browns hat!

I do quite a bit with the Boy Scouts. In this country, we teach the youth to call us Mr. or Mrs. as a sign of respect. In Canada the adults are usually called Scouter (insert first name here). I've always liked that, so I used it here.

And then sometimes the name gets bigger than the legend

Decided it was way past time (since we've been caching since 2002, that we explain our name. Actually, the reason I have not explained it before is because it is so obvious :wink: . When one goes out to seek a find and must use stealth, they had better just 'sneak-a-peek' at the cache site. The only thing we sorta wished we did differently was leave out the vowels like Hydnckr did to have a shorter name - but then who knows how it would get pronounced (there are some not so pretty possibilities, so let's just not go there) :oops: ! As avatars go, we went with what we were able to do (computer savvy-wise). I can't even get our stats box to showup :? !

See ya at the next M & E!! Jill & Nelson

Leswon is a takeoff of my dad's name, the first three letters of his first and last name. As for the avatar I'm still workin' on that. Wish me luck!!!!
