I remember meeting Happymole and Gabalo back at GeoVenture in 2010. At first they were a little shy, but soon they were playing cards with Mhz and I, caching with groups and conversing with lots of people. Over the years, happymole has become more and more involved with the Manitoba Geocaching Association and is currently serving on the Board of Directors as Secretary. I always love talking to her as she loves to travel and has been to many interesting places. I've offered to carry her suitcase to New York City for toy conventions that she attends for work, but she now has a live in suitcase carrier. I'm still hopeful, though. Please continue reading to learn about the MBGA's Geocacher of the Month for April, happymole.

It’s a worldwide treasure hunt that’s becoming more popular in Manitoba.
Geocaching is the endless search for hidden objects, guided by clues and Global Positioning Systems. There are thousands of hidden geocaches in Manitoba alone; millions around the world. And for some Manitobans, finding them is a full time obsession and popular family activity that can lead almost anywhere.

Hailing from the Portage la Prairie area, Da_Bowz has been caching for several years now. They've come out to several events, and I've been able to go caching with them. Often when we get a chance to talk, it's about travelling, which all three of us love. I had noticed through the winter months (and by "winter months", I mean the real winter months, not April), that Mr. Da Bowz was doing a lot of caching in Winnipeg. So much so, that I suggested that they may want to considering relocating to our fair city. So far, they're still firmly planted in the Central Plains region of the province.
