Hello All,

I have the travel bug and it has made it to Mosul, Iraq. I'm not sure where it was intend to go but it has made it this far. A little about myself, I'm a U.S. Army soldier from Washington DC who has served for over 15 years in the service.

To Bethany: miss you and hope to see you soon. I will pass to Carl.

Grabbed a steady grip of THE COLORS TB and will soon send it toward Mesopotamia. It may take a few odd turns along the way but it'll be in good hands.

  • Standing tall with Liberty! THE COLORS just HAD to spend some time with Liberty at Ft Steilacoom Park in Lakewood, WA before it heads off to distant lands.

Found this buried deep in the pockets of a curious 3-year old who is famous for 'finding things'. We took it on a journey with us around historic Fort Steilacoom, Lakewood, WA and checked it into a geocache nearby. It will soon (in the next few minutes) head off to distant, parched lands in quest of the ultimate adventure.

  • Ft Steilacoom's Cannons Hanging out with a Napoleon Cannon at historic Ft Steilacoom in Lakewood, WA.  This fort served a large role in securing Washington Territory as a future state for the US.

We found this great TB at Stanley Lake Creek #2 which is a remote spot in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. Unfortunately in our excitement about this find and the travels since, it was misplaced for over two months. Now it is time to to place it in a deserving cache .
