Current Goal

Fourth time is the charm... we hope...

 

Hello! This is our fourth attempt at a trackable bug.  Our last three bugs have mysteriously disappered "in transit" over the past 12 years.  We ask a single, simple favor from you -- if you do not intend to drop off our little yellow convertible in your future travels, PLEASE do not take it out of the cache.  PLEASE leave it for someone that will follow through on its voyage.

The goal of this bug is to visit as many states as possible, while finally making it back to our area, somewhere in Michigan.  We are dropping this bug off in the Gulf Shores, Alabama area while on vacation.  When we visit Gulf Shores, we try to rent a convertible for our time there, so this seemed a fitting bug for this trip. 

PLEASE see our bug down the road to another destination.  We appreciate your time and effort in seeing our 4th attempt through! 

Thank you!!!

Brandon & Kara

    Dropped this little guy off in the perfect geocache on the way to Royal Oak, MI for a fun day at Creative Arts Studio with a friend. The little yellow convertible has been replaced (with a Hot Wheels Corvette C6 Yellow Convertible key chain).

    I hope he enjoys his time in Michigan and that life treats him well! 😚

    Grab It (Not from a Cache) 2/20/2025 Brookiey grabbed it   Visit Log

    I obtained this cache while searching for a geocache called "The Jon" in Alabama (GC9V94B). It was lying on the ground near the cache container. This was likely taken by a cacher from the TB hotel it was last logged in during the Banarama event, but not logged, and then accidentally dropped by a cacher who was recently searching for "The Jon". This cache has a very interesting history!
    Unfortunately, there is no yellow convertible attached to the tag, it's just the tag itself. It is a bit confusing, because it appears, based on the logs and a photo, that early in 2023 there was just a tag (no convertible), but then later in 2024 and even early 2025, there are a couple pictures with a yellow convertible attached. Did someone replace it maybe? I'm not sure, but there is no longer a convertible attached. It is the same tag that is pictured in the 3/10/24 photo (as I compared the markings on the tag which correlate), though it appears the convertible was attached at that time. I'm hoping to replace the convertible with something when I get home -- maybe I can find a yellow convertible hot wheels car (since we have a bunch of those).
    ANYWHO, I read the description for this tag and was so intrigued because it appears that the owners of this trackable are from Michigan and dropped it off in Alabama while on vacation. Coincidentally, I am from Michigan and currently visiting Orange Beach/Gulf Shores Alabama to visit family. From reviewing the logs, it appears that this trackable has either been placed in a cache or visited/traveled to the following states: Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Texas, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Tennessee, Florida, and finally back to Alabama where I found it once again. This tag has had a great journey, and I just can't resist bringing him back home to Michigan where he belongs. I am excited to find him a great cache to travel to. I just need to find some way to attach a new car to it. Au revoir Alabama, Bonjour Michigan! 😛
