Current Goal

PLEASE BE SURE TO REGISTER ON GEOCACHING.COM THAT YOU RETRIEVED AND DROPPED THIS TRACKABLE OFF FROM AN OLD TO NEW CACHE LOCATION! HELPS TRACKING ON THE MAP! :)

Congrats!  You've found the Colorado Bound!!! trackable.  This trackable's mission is clear:  

Head west!  Drop this trackable off at either small, regular, large sized caches meant for trading trackables, TBs, and geocoins to the west (if exchange caches aren't close to you that's fine, just anything that fits and to the west!).  The eventual goal of this trackable is at the resting place of the following cache in Englewood:

So, if you're already in Colorado / Denver area, great!  Take a trip to the suburbs and enjoy this great nature path where I grew up, and drop this off at the "Take A Load Off" cache as listed above.  If you've found this already at the "Take A Load Off" cache and don't feel like going back to drop it off, no worries!  Just pass the trackable around the Denver area;  it'll either end up back in Englewood, or some other fun place in Denver I didn't get to visit (a reason to go back!).  

Thanks for your amazing effort in this crazy journey back home!!!

About This Item

maker madness

Not much else to describe about this trackable, other than my background and relation to why this trackable is bound for Englewood, CO!

I grew up here in the 90s before moving to east of the Mississippi.  We walked these paths quite a bit as kids, a great introduction to the great outdoors.  In today's digital era, hiking is pretty much the only thing that can pry me from the screen, so I suppose these trails have engrained a subconcious desire to get outside and be free.  

If you've got some time to kill in the Englewood / Centennial area around the "Take A Load Off" cache area, I have an optional challenge for you.  

OPTIONAL:

Somewhere in this residential city block, within the confines of East Dry Creek Rd., South Yosemite St., East County Line Rd., and South Quebec St., is my old childhood home!

To complete the optional challenge, find the above location, and take a picture of yourself in front of my old home! (Don't be too creepy about, just a good ol selfie on the sidewalk out front haha) Then, upload your photo here on this page when you retrieve or dropoff the trackable at the "Take A Load Off" cache location.  

Hint:  Aside from being a big beautiful blue house, it's on a corner straight across the street from a community pool...there's four community pools within this city block, so your chances are decent ;)  

Thank you, and enjoy this great state!

Grabbed this trackable in Texas; Meyer04. When we got back to home base, we couldn't find it in the luggage to log it. FOUND it again!! Brought it to Aruba and will be leaving it here!! Sorry for the delay!

This TB is still showing to be in my "Meyer 04" cache (GC52A8P) but as I previously noted here on the TB page, it was picked up by CacheMeIFyouC@n on 11/20/2014. They just haven't logged the retrieval for some reason. I marked the TB as missing so that it would not show up as being in the TB inventory of the Meyer 04 cache. I hope this one turns up somewhere and/or is logged by CacheMeIFyouC@n so that the TB owner knows the whereabouts of the TB.

The cacher "CacheMeIFyouC@n" retrieved this TB from Meyer 04 (http://coord.info/GC52A8P) on 11/20/14. I've messaged them through GC.com to ask them to retrieve it on the TB page so the whereabouts are accurately shown.
