    We picked this up from Homerun today and were intending to take it to New Zealand to get some miles on it until we realized that there were specific goals requested (baseball is not played in New Zealand).
    We will endeavour to place this in a busy location that will increase its chances of it being picked up to continue on its way.

    I was looking through the TB Rest Stop cache when my 3-year-old said "Look! There's another cache in here!" and I pulled this one out. Then I remembered that I inteded to look for this TB, since my husband has a cache called "Home Run" that it really ought to visit ... after I take it to see the Durham Bulls athletic park. Wonder if hubby would part with any of his baseball cards...

    I really like this idea for a travel bug... so much so that I've got a "traveling cache" bug, too! Even more of a coincidence is the fact that there was a Mets themed traveling cache (a cache, not a bug) that I just recently found! I took nothing and left a Conklin Sports Park batting cage token.
