Current Goal

"Maryland, My Maryland" has a goal to meet in its travels. This bug started out at the “Before the Bridge” cache in Claiborne, Maryland in late August 2002. I am re-releasing it for third two year adventure and would like to follow its travels to as many states, provinces and countries as it can, before returning to “Wye Knot?” cache back on Maryland's Eastern Shore in the late Fall of 2006 -- 2007 -- Now 2012 from its drop-off this summer.                   

            

September 2012: It's time to come home to Maryland's Eastern Shore!
