Imagine my delight when I heard the news – not one but TWO of my monkees had been found.
Smiler and Buttons -
Now, I hadn’t hidden them in particularly hard to find places but they were both found by Karen who was on a mission! I think she had spied them in my blog posting and set off on the trail. Karen enjoys Geocaching so she’s pretty good at the treasure hunting part! You can see Karen’s blog here, it’s a delightful read because on her treasure hunts she visits many beauty spots in Eastern Ontario.
Karen emailed me to let me know that she’d found them, she also confided that she felt a little guilty keeping them both and was going to let one of them go again – but for the night, they were both enjoying the warmth and hospitality she offered.
Yesterday Karen let Smiley go! Yes, he’s the one with the teeth – he might be a little homely looking but he’s lots of fun. The exciting part of this tale is that Karen didn’t let Smiley go in Merrickville – she took him all the way to BROCKVILLE where he has become part of a Geocache and is patiently waiting for the next leg of his adventure.
This is better than I hoped for! I figured the monkees would get found and pocketed and if I was really lucky I might hear from one or two people who found them. BUT to have a monkee continue on an adventure is very exciting – for me – and hopefully for him too! He could end up anywhere!

This is do much fun to follow. I had not heard of this game before. I really don’t think we have it here in Quebec. Good luck to the finder of Smiley !!!!
How fun!! That is great, maybe you’ll get photos from the Monkees – Maybe they’ll go across the globe and you’ll get to do posts for Monkees Around the World!
