Recently Spotted:  Unknown Location

Current GOAL:  Horton, CircumConUS Racer is competing in the Race and his goal is to travel to Texas, then Florida, then Maine, then Minnesota, then Washington and finally California. Please help him circumnavigate the conterminous United States, making these required "stops" along the way.

About this item:

These are some of the rules:

1. Travel bugs will follow a counter-clockwise route around the US. The required stops are at lease one cache placement in the following states: California (starting state and cache), Texas, Florida, Maine, Minnesota, Washington, and back to the starting cache IN THAT ORDER. The bugs must trace the states in this order so any skipping of these goal states means backtracking. All other states and countries can be skipped.

2. Bugs must be physically placed in a cache in each state visited. No "I was here with the bug" logs, someone else has to retrieve the bug after placement.

3. After the start, no TB racer owners can handle ANY of the racers. The actions of third parties are not under the owners' control. They have a long race to run, so negative interference is not encouraged. Please be considerate and fair to the racers and help them on the way.

4. After the start, no more than two race bugs may be placed in any given cache.

I don't think MotherGoose would be happy with some more miles. We'll try to move it a few miles North or West toward MN.    5/14/2006 Blue Grass Tom placed Horton, CircumConUS Racer in Ye Olde Schoolhouse Cache Iowa 34.9mi NE   [visit log]    3/18/2006 Blue Grass Tom retrieved Horton, CircumConUS Racer from Syracuse Iowa   [visit log] Grabbed Horton in Syracuse Nature area.

I can't promise MN, but maybe closer in northeast Iowa.
