This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

A little bit of Staffordshire is a Travel Bug Dog Tag Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

If you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

UPDATED: This bug has completed part of its mission by visiting Sonny & Sandy in San Diego. It now wants to continue travelling around the US visiting as many US states as possible by September 2010 before returning to me in Staffordshire, UK. Please help the bug to keep moving along.
