Current Goal

We bought this bug as a Christmas present for my dad (jbang5), who introduced us to Geocaching. He works for NASA, which is why we chose the shuttle theme. The kids and I would like for it to travel to him in Annapolis, MD. If you are the person who takes the bug to that city, drop it in a cache and then please let jbang5 know so he can go pick it up! Then hopefully he will take it on one of his business trips and start it travelling around to wherever it may go.

Moving my travel bug from Cooper's Rocks Entrance to Beaverhole, where it was recently photographed. Guess someone moved it and forgot to log it.

We found this bug in Beaverhole (very close to Coopers Rock) GCHZWG. However it appears not to have been logged into the cache by the person who retrieved it from Coopers Rock. We did not note the tag number and have left the travel bug in Beaverhole GCHZWG where we found it. Just thought someone would like to know where it really is located.

Picked the shuttle up from Simpson's Creek Covered Bridge and moved it north to Cooper's Rock Entrance on I-68. This should speed it along it's way to Annapolis.

Picked up this bug while at Cabela's in WV. Will get a photo with him and them move him closer to Annapolis. I may need to hand him off to another geocacher if I can't head further east sometime soon.
