INFORMATION ABOUT BEVT SERIES

We chose a dog bone for our geoart as the TugTug part of our geocaching name, Team TugTug refers to our furry buddies that pull us along on some of our geocaching outings.  So here’s to Sophie, Abby, and Bandit (only one still with us). 

The mysteries are a mixture of various places, songs, shows, and things.  As mentioned before, these caches are not meant to be difficult so just have fun!
