    • Ed in Texas Here's Ed, looking quite healthy in Texas, visiting the San Jacinto Monument near Houston.
    • San Jacinto Monument Located at the site of Gen. Sam Houston's victory over Santa Anna, the San Jacinto Monument honors the heroes of the battle that secured Texas' freedom from Mexico. THIS monument was not on Ed's checklist, but perhaps it should have been. Standing several feet taller than the Washington Monument, this limestone structure is topped by a 3-dimensional "lone star" and should be on the must-see list for anyone visiting the Houston area. Oh, and there are about 8 geocaches on the grounds.

    Well, I'm not going anywhere near Old Faithful, but I'll move this bug along soon.

    Well, it looks like the original Ed has resurfaced in [url=http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?LUID=98f8be21-57f3-4803-82b4-0a91f26cc041]this cache[/url]. It looks like I may have some explaining to do to the wife 😉.

    I wonder what will ever happen to his clone?

    We have found some tissue samples of Little Ed and have sent them to Sweden. Their top scientists have been working diligently and have successfully cloned him. He is on a plane back to the states and will be able to rejoin the race in his cloned brothers place :)

    I met small Ed at 2nd Geo-Woodstock. He was nice to me and we chatted a bit about the difference between caching in Europe and the U.S. Logged with permission from big Ed while he's M.I.A.

    Found small Ed back at Woodstock, stark naked, covered in mud and singing some funny song. With permission from big Ed I get to log him while he's M.I.A.

    Well, I'm afraid that Dad has gone missing in action!!! We are holding out hope that maybe He and all the other travel bugs that was in [url=http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=cb175d94-6f91-4912-8c1e-d0c5763c364a]this cache[/url] find their way home.
