How do Trackable Items work?

Recently Spotted: In the hands of bookworm1212

Current GOAL: ..........To travel coast to coast to coast in "The First CircumConUS Travel Bug Race". Please keep "Tou-can Play" on the move. Pictures of you, her, friends, and places are always welcome and encouraged. ***************** IMPORTANT! tOU-CAN IS NO LONGER A "TOUCAN" AN UNINFORMED CACHER STOLE THE BIRD AND REPLACED IT WITH A MAINE KEYCHAIN THING. THE TAG IS STILL GOOD TO RACE SO KEEP IT GOING IN ITS PRESENT CONDITION. IF YOU COME ACROSS A TOUCAN TO ADD TO THE TAG I WOULD BE REALLY HAPPY. Next stop.......MINNESOTA!!!!...................................................................................................hiphip horray! Tou-can Play is a bird again. thanks!!!

About this item:
Here are the race rules: ......Travel bugs will follow a counter-clockwise route around the US. The required stops are at least 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. .....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. 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. After the start, no more than two race bugs may be placed in any given cache. The race will be over when the first three racers reach the finish cache, Hmmm, if the prize winning finishers (1st and 2nd) don't finish in a year, then the race will continue until they do.

I actually found Tou-can Play in cache GCH485, "I Have Seen the Light!," out at Cana Island, WI, while in the area on vacation. Looks like it didn't get logged into this cache by whomever had it last. Tou-can's next goal is Minnesota according to the sheet that came with, and as that is home for me, I'll find it a good home here in a cache, so it can keep on moving.

Darn! I was going to Minnesota the first week of July, but surgery has put those plans on hold. So....I'll just move him along as quickly as I can.
