Current Goal

Help the lovebug find Bob.
Below is the original description for the travel bug. Unfortunately after repeated emails to geocacher Chance with no reply we have to now assume Bob is lost. We are now sending out the Lovebug wearing a copy of Bob's dogtag to see if it can find Bob. Thanks also to AJogger for the LoveBug

About This Item

Help the LoveBug find Bob



"Bob, the travel bug, is named after our neighbours dog, who unfortunately has gone to that great doggie heaven in the sky.
Bob really liked to swim. He would go for minimum 3 hour swims in the ocean out in front of our place. The seals would play hide'n'seek with him. When we would go out in our boat, he would come out to see if we had caught anything.
As a tribute to Bob, we would like to have this travel bug see the ocean (whether it be the Atlantic, the Pacific, the Indian, etc)from all the possible vantage points.
Have fun Bob!"

After repeated emails to geocacher chance with no reply, it appears Bob has been lost down in the States - hopefully he was not hit by a car again.

We are going to send out the Lovebug to see if he can be found. Love always finds a way...sounds corny.

The Lovebug will have the backup dogtag of Bob's - hopefully they will meet up together somewhere out there.

Bob will now move on to visit the Pacific Ocean as seen from San Diego. I picked him up at the Bayberry View (Not sure of name at this time) cache and will take him with me to San Diego when I go home. I only cache on the weekends so he will be inactive until the weekend of the 12 and 13th.
