Current Goal

Please Rescue Boo-Boo From His Current Cache

Boo-Boo (aka "The Hook") was born in Lake Clear, NY, and he would like to come back here some day, but at the moment, he needs to take an extended...vacation. He would prefer a non-extradition country, but the far side of any border will do. Please take and upload photos of him in far off places (to be used as future alibis). He would like to come home when the statute of limitations has expired, in the spring of 2014.

Boo-Boo would like to see the world beyond the Adirondack Park, and to drink deep of the well of experience. He wants to swim in both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, skydive, surf, go skiing, boat down the Colorado, wrestle an alligator, sail beyond the horizon, play the slots at Caesar's Palace, eat spicy food and dance on Bourbon Street, meet a nice lady-gnome, and stay well-clear of the "Ceramic Mafia" which has people out looking for him. Any help you can give him will be appreciated.

About This Item

Behind the Boo-Boo lies a complex gnome

Boo-Boo is a tiny lawn-type gnome, indistinguishible from any other except for his missing right hand, which was lost in a mishap at "The Back Door" (a rough and tumble saloon which closed soon after his hasty departure, to be replaced by a fern-bar) in Saranac Lake, NY. He tends to be reticent about his past, and can take a while to warm up to strangers. He likes cold weather, mushroom soup, Ted Nugent, worms and bugs, and the "Quiller" books by Adam Hall.

rescued Boo-Boo from a very roomy ammo box in San Angelo State Park. He's been to Houston, but I don't think he has yet traveled to the Promised Land -- College Station, TX -- home of the Fightin' Texas Aggies. So that is where he is headed!

I have Boo-Boo and will move him along soon. I should be able to move him a few hundred miles west in a couple of weeks. Folks out in West Texas don't ask many questions when a stranger wanders into town, so Boo-Boo should feel comfy out that way.

Stopped by the PLAY CACHE to see what Bugs were inside. Discovered BOO-BOO inside waiting to put his HOOK on me. Quickly placed him back in the cache before he got to me. Thanks for the visit as such.
