We picked this TB up today with plans to place it in Canada in a few days. An injury less than two hours later will screw up our caching for a while. See picture. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?LUID=f25d3a4d-f631-47c8-b75e-d1296d951e4f
Gloria has never cached alone, but I'll try talk her into dropping it off very soon.

I guess the Devil to which the tag was attached has succumbed to the disease the the Tassie Devils are in big trouble with. Thanks to whoever attached the turtle.

I don't know if this travel tag was originally attached to a turtle, but a previous cache finder left a log entry she attached it. Hopefully the turtle will win the race! I have it and will pass it along soon.
