About This Item

Thanks for picking up my trackable: "Henry the Lion and his book"

It made a long voyage,  Henry and his book are from Braunschweig, Germany - my hometown.

I visited the USA twice and got home with wonderful memories. I hope to visit USA someday once again. Until than I send "Henry and his book ahead. It's goal is to visit all US states.

My I ask for a favor? Please, can you fill out in the book the list on page 4-7 for the first cache whenever "Henry and his book" visits a state for the first time.

I made also a double page for every US state. So if you like you can write down your geocaching-name, a special note, a poem or stick in a photo,... Be creativ and show me the state you are living in! I would appreciate it and be excited and pleased about it.

Thanks a lot and best regards from Germany!

Retrieve It from a Cache 11/10/2018 Ambrosia retrieved it from GIFF 2018 - Red Carpet Premiere Tennessee   Visit Log

Thanks, Called2care, for sharing this TB with me! We'll be able to take him to a few states. 😎

Dropped Off 11/10/2018 Called2care placed it in GIFF 2018 - Red Carpet Premiere Tennessee - 118.33 miles  Visit Log

We assisted with hosting a GIFF event in our area and had quite a good turn out. Our hosts went all out by rolling out the red carpet... had a balloon arch, popcorn, and prizes. I would say about 30 or more came out for the event. The movies were just a hoot and I wasn’t sure how I would pick which one was my favorite. We have just loved having Henry! I’m attaching the page that Super_Nate and I filled out for him. He was handed off to good hands.

My goodness I feel dreadful!!!! I haven’t moved or logged these poor bugs in months. What’s terrible is that I pride myself in being a good bug mover and like to get them going in a few weeks. It’s been an extremely busy time with Super_Nate getting a new job as a firefighter and getting life in order.
They have been safe and happy in my TB backpack!!!!
This is my home cache, it is still here at the house, but the box fell apart and I’m making a new box. Come visit us sometime!!!

Favorite cache of the day for sure! This was a lovely two stager with stage one being a phone number written on the back side of an old red telephone booth. When we called the number, it gave us the coords to get to stage two which was on the back of the building. The container was a small replica of the red telephone booth with flowers on the side.
Under the box was a little butterfly that you would touch to the flowers to get the needed info to get in the cache. We got the info and were so pleased with the cache!!!

Catching counties along Florida. This is a colorful PVC pipe in a tree at a fire house. It is stocked with colorful toy firemen. Very nice cache.

Not far from this cache we stopped by an alligator sanctuary and watched a show with a gator and his guy. The gator, Charlie, was a big guy... about 400 lbs, and he was nice and chill, even when his guy opened his mouth waved hands in the mouth hoping it wouldn’t snap shut. Thankfully it didn’t. After the the gator show, we all got to hold babies gators. They are surprisingly soft and cuddly!!! They loved being scratched right on the back of their necks. Here is a picture of Casper, Super_Nate and I.
After the gator show, we rode an hour long Airboat tour. It took us through the Everglades trees. We got to meet a huge gator and a group of 5 tree raccoons which we fed dog biscuits to. The gator also ate some of the biscuits, but I think he was secretly hoping a raccoon would fall..
Such a fun day!!!

Visited 7/4/2018 Called2care took it to EVER- Park Employee for a Day Geocache #2 Florida - 1.85 miles  Visit Log

I am happy to announce that I have gotten to see a HUGE alligator, in the wild, and saw his full body! I was even about 2 feet from him cuz the boardwalk (where I was) was right on top of him. Actually we saw 2 alligators. The first one was a smaller one swimming in the large pond, and then as we continued the board walk, we came upon a 10 ft gator. Now a gator specialist that we met later estimated that this guy is about 30 to 35 years old and can probably only move 8 mph since there is not much he is afraid of. Sooooo cool! The dude just lay there in the shade, listening to us talk about him. He did move a foot (not measurement... his actual foot! 😹)
Oh yes and we did see and get a geocache. Also Super_Nate got bit by a 5 inch cricket that I made him hold... 🙈 And we saw lots of fish, turtles, and birds.

I’m so excited to be making a smiley out of this cache because I’ve always wanted to come to the Everglades for years!! I’ve also always wanted to see a full live alligator and I have high hopes that I will see one today. Previously eyes have been all that I’ve spotted on a night hunt for them. So bring on all the wildlife and the beautiful scenery!!! It’s so cool to be getting a cache at a National Park Visitor Center!

Visited 7/3/2018 Called2care took it to First and Last Cache on US 1 Florida - .72 miles  Visit Log

We made this a quick find among the many many people. We used our biggest stealth mode and it seemed to work well. We have been enjoying the island today, but this cache is like the top of our list to get. So fun to be at mile marker 0 of US 1. Now it would be fun to drive it all the way up to the top, but I guess that’s for another trip. We found a really neat gift shop and actually crossed off all our Christmas gifts for December, so it was like Christmas in July!! 😹 But when are you at two cool places as once very often during the year?
