About This Item

Gavin in his home jungle

Frank and his friends awoke from an extra-long nap in a remote Australian forest to find that while they had been sleeping, a kind of hairless mammal had taken over their home. Determined to find out what made these, ugh, mammals so special, all four dinosaurs decided to travel to the great sites of human antiquity and to report back. Beware! If they're not treated kindly they might wake up all their other friends and squash us all!

27 October 2005: Frank has completed his mission, thanks to Ack, son of Hack. He's not quite ready to come home yet, so any Geocachers prepared to help him travel around a little further are most appreciated.

14 Junly 2006: Ok, Frank's a bit homesick now. Somehow he ended up in the USA and realised that he's rather a lot further from home than he had thought. Any help getting him back to Melbourne, Australia, would be looked upon kindly by the dinosaur gods.

Don't worry, Frank is in good hands!! I'm not planning a trip to China anytime soon but I will place him in another cache here in the US very soon. This is our first tb find and we feel very priviledged to have Frank in our lives.

Every since we got back to Oklahoma, it has been raining. Here are a few pics of Frank hanging around in my room. I plan to drop him as soon as the opportunity presents itself.

  • Posing with 2 Porsches & 1 Aston Martin
  • Sure is cloudy outside!
  • With 2 of my Geocoins.

WOW!!!!! This TB has traveled far! Frank told me that he now wants to travel to Europe on his way back home, so I'll be taking him back to the Great State of Oklahoma. Maybe he can team up with my TB, which is also wanting to get to Europe! Frank is doing well. He'll fly with me on Frontier airlines tomorrow. I'll get some pics posted and have him meet some Oklahoma geocachers. Thanks for sharing and Good Luck on his travel! 😛😎
