Picked up from Wilson house and will definitely be saving this one for a place near a body of water. (Or a rainy day)

We actually did find you in a little water since the cache you were in wasn't watertight. Hard to get far from water around here.

This Travel Bug was especially interesting to me, because my dad was a woodcarver by hobby. Did birds and various animals, almost all of which would be way too big to use as a Travel Bug. Plus he is dead now, and I wouldn't want to part with any of his carvings. Your dad did a nice job carving that one, 8Wetpaws, and I will take good care of it until I can move it to a new location near water. There are lots of beautiful waterfalls in Arkansas where I live, but I may be making a trip to the Louisiana or Florida coast soon, so I may hold this TB until I make the journey there, which should be within 60 days or less. If not, I'll try to move it to a waterfall location here in Arkansas.

This bug wanted to be near water, so it is now in a cache overlooking a waterfall that drains into Lake Catherine in the Diamond Lakes Region of Arkansas. Glad to have helped this traveller along its way. Will be watching to see where it goes next!
