Current Goal

Old:  Redwinged Mary needs to get to Green Bay, Wisconsin (where Benny was last taken) then complete the circle tour of Lake Michigan that Benny started. Benny was going counter-clockwise around the lake. When Redwinged Mary gets back to the Grand Rapids, Michigan area I'd like her to fly on home.

Little Bunny Foo-Foo is a friend of Benny and Mary.  He has bravely volunteered to continue their journey.  Back to Green Bay, Wisconsin, then counter-clockwise around Lake Michigan.  Thanks for moving him!

(July 2016)   Re-release in memory of all three of these brave travelers who have gone on to be in that mysterious place where travel bugs disappear to.   Let's just see where this goes.

July 2018.  Last release lasted a month before disappearing again.  Gonna try one more time.  Just call this one Benny reincarnated...

July 2024 - Yet another re-release.

 

About This Item

Benny 2018

Old:  Benny the green-eyed butterfly is jealous of those who've been able to travel the circle tour of Lake Michigan (hence the green eyes!) He went quite a ways on the circle tour before being lost in December 2007 (last held by daddydawg.) Benny's cousin Redwinged Mary has bravely volunteered to carry out Benny's mission and complete the circle tour, using Benny's duplicate tag. If the original Benny resurfaces, please be sure to indicate in your log that you found the original (check the gallery to see what Benny looks like!)

Little Bunny Foo-Foo, a friend of Benny and Mary, has bravely volunteered to continue their journey, after Mary was lost sometime in 2010.  He disappeared too.

NEW: (July 2016)  Re-releasing in memory of all three of these brave travelers who have gone on to be in that mysterious place where travel bugs disappear to.  Let's just see where this goes.

 

July 2018, one more go-round with Benny reincarnated .

After reading the logs, I realized this is supposed to be going counter clockwise. I hope someone else has better success getting it around the lake the other way!
