Current Goal

Gumby is very photogenic (and he stands up!).

He has a simple mission: To be photographed as much as possible, preferably at your place of work (if applicable). Simply stand him on your desk (or firetruck, or...), shoot the photo [no tag number showing, please!!], and upload here. With all this activity going on around your place of employment- someone's SURE to ask what the heck you are up to- and that will be the perfect time to introduce them to the sport of geocaching!

(why photograph him at your *place of employment*? Mostly because it's different; there's already TONS of travelbugs being photographed at cache locations!)

Found the new Gumby A-Ok and will take him to work with me to get photographed then move him on.
Write note 11/2/2005 spring robin posted a note for it   Visit Log

Based on prior reports, I emailed the team posessing the travel bug, and had them hang onto gumby's "leg" (foot, actually) until I could find a replacement.

No small gumbys were to be found at any local store, so I ended up finding one via the world marketplace- i.e. eBay. When gumby finally arrived, I shipped him along to Michigan.

Thanks much to the person who added the temporary plastic tag in lieu of Gumby's missing body! (And shame on whomever's dog chewed him up in the first place!)

The temporary tag has been removed, and replaced by a new gumby. Thanks also to HalanskiExpiditions for being patient while I found a new body!
