Geocache Description:

WARNING: This cache has issues with contents getting muggled - therefore, I am declaring it no longer a TB hotel - just too dangerous. Please don't place trackables in it. It would also be wise to skip any trade items as local teens frequent the cache.

So, no kidding, there we were… Teammcw out on a geocaching run in Tacoma. We were after one nestled in a quaint little neighborhood when we saw it. It was just sitting on the side of the road with a big sign – FREE. Well, hey, we’re not ones to pass up a freebie, so we loaded up the container and brought it home. It was a bit of a fixer upper. However, it reminded me of my first duty station in the Army – Germany. And looking at the container, I knew it had to be a travel bug hotel. Unfortunately, it's guests frequently turn up missing - maybe I should rename it the Bates Motel. So now it's just an unusual cache, but still there to provide a chuckle for those who find it.

We hope you enjoy finding it as much as we did making it!

FTF prize is an unactivated TB.

Congrats to R-L Painter for the FTF - and it was great meeting you!
