2500 Find Geo-Achievement

Image
   I just received Volume 10 Issue 4 of FTF Magazine in the mail, and the 2500 Find Geo-Achievement that I submitted was published in it!

The previous December, Tom and I went to visit my parents (DragonSoldier45 and DragonLadyHue) for Christmas, and we went out to the Morosini Reserve to do the Wherigo located there.
