About This Item

Chipper

To make this Travel Bug more interesting please add a postcard from your area with some comments.   The Travel Bug will carry these postcards with him for other geocachers to enjoy.   I have added some postcards from my area to start it off.

Please only remove the Travel Bug if you plan to place him in another cache.   If you place the Travel Bug in another State please email me and I will update the checklist.

Please keep the Travel Bug moving. I rather see him moved to another local cache then see him sit in someone's home for a while to be moved to another State. Half the fun is reading the logs.

Retrieve It from a Cache 1/16/2002 Mr Yuk retrieved it from Pea Island Plunder North Carolina   Visit Log

Visited Pea Island Plunder (my first cache) and found Chipper (a travel bug). Will leave the wee fella in a cache at another cache near Raleigh, NC in the hopes he will find his way to warmer climes. Not sure when he will make it to the next cache just yet as he has been sight seeing and drinking rum. (He is currently passed out on the futon after a long night of merriment and Caribbean song.) See his new pics on his page.

Retrieve It from a Cache 12/9/2001 Sea_Dog retrieved it from Scotts Run Revised Virginia   Visit Log

Seadog and four of his wenches traveled to Fairfax VA from Va Beach to visit an old shipmate. (Ray Man) Our plan was to visit the Scotts Run cache yesterday but the weather didn't cooperate. That's ok, we really needed the rain! We chose to visit Scott's Run because Chipper the Travel Bug was reported as being there looking for a ride to a new state. We found Chipper and took him to a Maryland cache today. We found another travel bug there. I think we'll show Chipper and Superman around Virginia a few days. We'll take a few pictures before we drop them off. Mark, Lindsay, Allison, Michelle and Katie
