Current Goal

My owner is a pilot for a major international airline and has just gotten the geocaching bug.  While he has certainly logged more miles than I ever will, he to date has only found caches in three states and six countries (on 3 continents).  My goal as a travel bug is to set the standard high for my owner.... he promises to try to find a cache (eventually) in whatever state or country that I end up in (as long as his airline flies there ;) )  Once I get 20+ coutries or all 50 states.... please start sending me back to the Houston, TX area where I am from.  Thanks!

 

Feel free to upload a picture of where I've been as well!

 

My owner now needs to find a cache (eventually) in :

States: Michigan

Countries: Canada

I'm attached to authentic Captain epaulets.  Not that it's anything special, but hey, it goes with the aviation theme.

Okay, golddogdad was working to get this travel bug into a foreign country south of Texas but jdweb84 moved it to Michigan. Then I came along and not knowing its mission picked it up out of Good Riddance Assistance and moved it into Canada via Windsor, Ontario, which is actually located south of Detroit, Michigan, as the Detroit River which forms the international border in the area actually runs east/west between Detroit and Windsor, so, having said all that, even though the travel bug traveled north out of Texas it still ended up south of the United States enroute into Canada from Michigan. So, Canada needs to go on the list of countries in which caches have already been found though I'm thinking a cache has likely already been found in Canada by the TBs owner. If not, well its time.

Glad to have had an opportunity to move this travel bug. I may move it back into Michigan but I have a great geocache in mind to move it into which I'm sure the owner of the TB will enjoy the humour. Then, I also have another cache in mind which would be appropriate but there is no humour in that one, which is also aviation related.

Team Webster - found while caching in the area on business - will look for some caches to put a few countries and a few miles on this one - TFTC!

Found this one in Pirate's Rainbow Bridge Cache and decided that I would try to get it as close as possible to another country, so I'm going to drop it in McAllen, Texas in anticipation that it might make travel further south pretty soon. This was a very neat idea and a great "widget" Thanks for sharing with us.
