CITO VII -
FALL IN !
Albuquerque
10.27.2007
Team Tuxawuxa hosted our 7th
quarterly CITO event in grand style!
Coffee & Donuts for everyone and
5 new caches, each with a new 2007 NM Geocoin
for some lucky finder. The cold wind
didn't dampen anyone's spirit and our stretch
of I-25 looks great. Thanks
to all the regulars and to our first-timers.
The wind's not normally that bad,
really!
A big thanks goes
out to Ryan of CowlesCachers for making
our stretch of highway a reality.

Frog
Dog and Corker and
Mermaid&HornyToad hosted
one heck of an event, one of the best we've
attended. About 50 people from around the
state attended and were met with plenty
of munchies, a sneaky cache hunt inside
the event room, lots of great prizes and
almost 30 new caches. All the SE New Mexico
cachers are great folks that hide some mean
caches! Great job, all of you. When can
we expect the Alien 2 event?
I'm working
on getting a photo album working and D.
Lynch sent some pictures from the event
so, rough as it is, check out the event
in our new gallery......

at Kelly's

but we got to know other cachers
more than ever so it was a resounding
success. A group beer brewing was planned
with results sometime around the end of
January. Thanks Bill and Fran!!
