Current Goal

To wander the planet seeking great caches and meeting lots of nice people along the way. Please look after me and feel free to send a postcard of my travels to my owners (hint hint) email us first.

I would particularly like to visit lots of downtown Manhattan and even see some of Norwalk CT where my owner visited in the pre Christmas blizzards of 2005.

Thank you to everyone who has sent postcards - the kids love getting overseas mail.

    Grab It (Not from a Cache) 8/13/2006 cezanne grabbed it   Visit Log

    I found this nice frog in this cache
    http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=19f7a561-4bcc-4b80-b324-92003ac2e157
    The TB is in good condition. I took it with me without knowing its goal (fortunately there is no special one) as the bug was not logged into the cache where I found it. I took it with me nevertheless in order to take care of its proper logging and to inform the owners that their TB is fine.

    It appears that Dr Torque mixed up two caches - the TB can never have been in the Kreuzbergwarte cache where it had been logged into as the frog does not fit into a film container.
    Since Dr. Torque is abroad at the moment, I prefer to grab the TB instead of waiting for a change of the logs. (The difference in the traveled miles is neglectable as the two caches are close together anyway.)

    Here you can find picture of the lookout tower at the Montikogel http://tgi19.telekom.at/portal/page?_pageid=884,419137&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL
    (the text is unfortunately in German)
    - the cache where I found your frog is is hiden very close to this tower. The Montikogel cache is located in the Styrian wine region known as Styrian Tuscany. The area is very close to the border of Slovenia.

    Frog W is on the move. Grabbed it the other day, he has had a short break out of the storms, and should be heading off somewhere in the next couple of weeks. He is headed somewhere exotic hence the delay. Hopefully will have some travel pics asap.

    We may not be able to log his location for a few weeks, due to limited internet access.
