i had to take this spoon cuz i can take it quite far on our caching tour of america. it's been in several states already with us - NY, NJ, PA, DE, WV, VA, and now MD.
we'll take it to seattle next week and try to get it up to the woodland park zoo for a photo. if we miss that opportunity, we'll take it further along the west coast. in any case it will get a nice journey and we are taking very good care of it, making sure it's secured with our belongings and in nice air conditioned rooms/car.
the spoon is treated well with us, except for one morning when i had food and no silverware in our fancy hotel room in VA. i had to use it to eat. don't worry, i washed it well and it's as good as new now.
