Saw this in the PDX Airport Travel Bug Embassy cache while launching a bug for a fellow cacher.

Well, I took a trip to Minnesota and thought I could get Eagle Feather closer to its South Dakota goal. Unfortunately, my geocaching skills were not up to par. I searched for eight, only found one, and it was a microcache. The closest this one got to South Dakota was a plane trip over the southeastern corner of the state. So, Eagle Feather is back in Portland waiting for some other geocacher to bring it on its way.

Picked this one up to bring to Minnesota. I can't get it quite to South Dakota, but at least it will be a little closer to its goal.

Discovered the feather at the PDX Hotel. Wish I had know it had been there so long, could have moved him on, but did not know until logging the discovery how long it had been sitting. It's a nice bug and deserves to travel soon!

Had a sudden urge to go bug hunting. Still in PDX Travelbug Hotel cache.
