MISSION: Traveling Treasure

I’ve never been to Iceland. I think that’s not exactly an uncommon sentence. I mean, how many people do you know who have been to Iceland? That’s not to say that I don’t want to go. In fact, I really do want to visit Iceland some day. And, thanks to Affiliated Agent C, an unsuspecting person will get to experience a little bit of Iceland right in the palm of his or her hand.

Love it.

{And P.S. Thank you, Affiliated Agent C, for your service to our country!!}

Wrapped up a fun mission this week… when I was in the military, I was stationed in Iceland for 15 months (back in 2002-2004). While I was there, I saved black basalt sand from the beach in Vik y Myrdal.

For this mission, I decided to share a ‘little’ treasure with someone out there. I chose a small box. Inside the box, I placed the black sand along with some Herkimer ‘diamonds’ from Herkimer,NY. I’m an avid mineral collector. Together, the two look like treasure or a night sky full of stars! I cut out words from a magazine to stick to the box and made a little card with a note.

The drop was this morning at approximately 10:30, Sept.1, 2010 on top of the paperbox at Bojangles on South Tryon in Charlotte,NC. Someone saw me walking up to the box but I don’t think they knew what I was up to (since the box was still there after I went through the drive-thru). I do hope that this brought a smile to someone’s face. A little treasure really does go a long way!
