Current Goal

We released this travelbug in Key Largo, Florida. I would like it to return to a cache near its origin in Minnesota, near zip code 55438. Before it returns, however, I would like it to visit each of the States in the U.S. that begin with the letter "M".

About This Item

The You Are Special travelbug is a heart shaped ceramic piece with the words "You Are Special" Painted on it along with flowers. It is relatively small and will fit in any size cache.

Update Sept 06: So far this bug has made the M states of Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, Maine, and Massachusetts. It still needs to make Michigan, Montana and Maryland before returning home to Minnesota. It has traveled over 15,000 official miles.

Sorry It took so long to drop this guy, but I did manage to get it to an M state, an out of the way one at that. Hope it was worth the wait and good luck on the rest of your journey.

Who knew that YAS' goal was to sit on my computer table for four months?? All kidding aside, I apologize for holding on to it for sooo long. But, it's finally back in circulation!

Snagged this TB while on business in Tampa. Hopefully I can get it to an "M" state. We'll see what fate has in store! gdshaffer

My apologies for holding onto this for so long. I really kept expecting to get it to an M state. It has been on quite a journey I took it with me to Italy, Florence, Venice, Cortina, then back to Seattle, then to California, SF, and LA, then to Texas, and Pennsylvania, then to Death Valley, and finally to Florida. Good luck getting it to an M state from here.

Picked this Bug up shortly after it was placed on the same day. This is our first travel bug, and it is going on a long journey.
