Retrieve It from a Cache 7/28/2012 GlobeCachers retrieved it from Absolutely NO Hunting!! Oregon   Visit Log

Seven years ago my son and I launched three travel bugs. The goal was for them to race to Maine and back to California.

Two of the bugs dropped out early, like TB's do, but "Coast-To-Coast Racer One" kept right on going. Seven years and over 30,000 miles later this little bug that could arrived close enough to reach out and grab it.

My son, Alex, is now seventeen, and at 6'4" is far removed from the 10-year-old boy who had high hopes for a few Hot Wheels. In a week or so we'll send it on its way again, and maybe it will reach its ultimate goal of visiting all 50 of the United States.

Here's a great big thank-you to all the cachers who moved this little feller on its way over the years!

Hi, this is Globecachers, the originators of this Travel bug. My girlfriend will be by in the morning to pick it up from the cache. I'm flying in Saturday and would like to visit the TB so please respect this, and leave it in the cache for a few days... thanks!

Sorry that it took 3+ weeks. Ugh. Anyway, this TB is now safely placed in a Corvallis, OR cache.

Got this guy from bigeddy up on the mountain. Special K works in Corvallis, so he'll drop it off in a local cache in the next week or so. Sorry for the late log.

Handed off to "chamois-shimi & special K" at the Star Party. On its way to Corvallis.

This bug has been around the block a few times. I notice that the owner wants it in Corvallis. Unless I hear otherwise, I'll hold onto it until the end of the month for the Pine Mountain Star Party (GC3GX6Y) where I can hand it off to one of the cachers from the Corvallis area (Groovy Cachin' Dude!, chamois-shimi & special K, et al.). With any luck it will be there by July 1, exactly 7 years after it was released.
