Picked this up from my brother who was unable to redeposit it before he left for OK. I will be placing this in a cache near a museum tomorrow in hopes that someone will pick it up and move it closer to its final destination. I haven't finished reading about it's journey yet but if it hasn't visited a museum, it soon will and that will check off one more of this TB's goals.
Update - After getting caught up on the TBs journey, sadly it has only managed one of this goals and that is to visit at least 3 states. Tomorrow, my family and I will place it at a museum cache... better late than never. Hopefully others can get the other missions complete and get him back home to Silver Springs, MD.

Initially found this in hopes to move it along as I travel back to OK. However, seeing that the goal is to try to return it to a cache near Silver Spring, MD, I will find a cache here in the DC area in hopes that someone else can move it closer to MD.
