About This Item

Elf at 10

ELF - 10/1/75 - 8/16/87

He was named for J.R.R.Tolkien’s Aragorn Elfstone (Strider) long before it was the “IN” thing to do. He was an avid adventurer and a ‘King’ in every sense of the word. Elf was always dignified and reserved with strangers, and a supreme judge of character. He was a most valued member of his family and the best of companions. -
For those of you who are wondering, surgery to remove a blood blister caused his once proud ear to droop, but the look in his eyes was eternal. -

Elf loved to ‘Go Bye’. He was a great traveler who was ready for any adventure no matter how long or short. Longer was better, but don’t hog the windows. He went to Canada and around the Northeastern U.S. He traveled by both car and boat. The boat was OK, but the dock was shaky at best. He also loved to take walks, and would have loved Geocaching. -

As a hitchhiker His goal is to ‘Go Bye’ where ever he can. He would like to travel by all different kinds of transportation to wherever the good geocache folks will take him. -

His spirit still lives in the hearts of his family, and it is in his memory that the Elfstone Crew takes its name.

Thanks for the new clue, finally found this one. Got to remember to stop looking for this one when the dew is still on the grass. You can get really wet walking through 6 foot high weeds. Took ELF for a walk to meet and play with my Grandchildren..
