Current Goal

This Travel Bug is the final of a series of four tractors. It began as a humble tractor, plowing the earth to grow staples for human life and now seeks the bright city lights, perhaps even being a star on film or TV. Take him to Hollywood or any big city and show him the excitement of people and places otherwise unseen by the normal working tractor.

About This Item

This tractor's "brothers" have all gone different directions, one has flown to Germany, another has gone to Arizona (to be near their snowbird grandpa and grandma), and another is just walkabout wherever geocachers would like to take him. This one has even higher goals. Please help him find his way to some great American cities. BTW, he prefers steak and eggs for breakfast, but a little variety is always good.

    This is my first Travel Bug! This has been a well traveled tractor, so I will treat it like a guest of honor. Since the tractor wants to do some traveling, I will hold him a couple weeks and let him see the city of Norfolk, and Virginia Beach, VA. I will also let him spend some time at the beach. This isn''t quite Hollywood, but I think he will enjoy this city for a few days. I will upload some pictures later showing him taking in the sites.

    • Tractor Over Virginia Beach The Tractor had a nice trip to the oceanfront the week of hurrican Isabel. The Tractor did survive the storm ok.
    • Another view of Virginia Beach with the Tractor The Tractor had a nice trip to the beach but had to leave before hurricane Isabel arrived.
    • Tractor in front of the Virginia Beach fishing Pier The Tractor gets its picture taken in front of the Virginia Beach Pier before it was damaged by hurricane Isabel.

    This is the first travel bug we have found. Very exciting!! My dad ran a John Deere and Agway store for some time so I just had to take it and send it along on its journey. We will find a proper home for it this coming weekend. Maine is a good spot for this bug with its farm heritage. Probably good for it to tour the State before continuing on its journey. We will let you know where we decide to place it.
