  • YOUR OBJECTIVE IDEA HERE drop me an email and I will post it


  • My wife and I discovered geocaching soon after she purchased a gps for my b-day. We loved playing from the first adventure. I knew my Dad would be excited to see it and play, but 5 days before his visit he died unexpectedly. This bug represents the last visit we never had. He name was John, but he jokingly referred to himself as Ivan. He built a beautiful home for us in Wisconsin and worked hard to allow us to have a mother to stay home and love us. I have no regrets or words unspoken with him. I never missed a moment to thank him for the sacrifices he and my mother made for us. I was sure excited when I thought about sharing geocaching with him, and this little bug helps my adventure with Dad live on. Thanks for taking care of him. Let the adventures begin!!!!

    Retrieve It from a Cache 6/6/2003 CoverMe92 retrieved it from Cheapstay Cafe California   Visit Log

    I retrieved Ivan from the Cheapstay Cafe... now spending a few days in a beautiful Cambria home. I have started his keychain collection with a cute little pig, and several clear plastic tags. Pictures or information can be added to each one as people deem fit. I made a note of some of his goals and his destination as well :-)

    Fotos or info can be inserted into the bottom of the clear tags, and a staple across the bottom of the tag will keep it there. I'll be going back to L.V. in a month, will drop him off in the bug house cache when i go back home. :-)

    Nothing on this 'bug but the chain. Should I attach something to dress him up?

    Found this and was curious that it did not have anything attached to it. I took it and later found out that’s the way it supposed to be. Will drop it off at a local cache to keep it heading East.
