I am taking this bug with me to Orlando. I am a new geocacher and am not great with a GPS... so from the list of cache's that I am going to try to find.. the first one that I do... gets the bug. .. If I dont find one, I know where several are here... or have a friend who shares this hobby who will take it to a far away destination ... so please be patient so we can help him move.

  • Rodney is ready to do Here is rodney waiting to go to orlando..maybe a visit with a cousin named Mickey first! Then into the easiest to find cache.

Found a nice cache in a lovely park in Miami. Introduced Rodney to his cousin Stuart who had been waiting patiently for a ride elsewhere. Took their picture together & will upload when I get home and can retrieve the pictures from my digital camera. Rodney is now far enough east, but will be looking for someone heading north to help him get closer to Maryland.

  • Supervising the packing Rodney supervises the packing to make sure all the geo-gear goes into the suitcase.
  • Rodney & Stuart Stuart checked out of the Miller Hi! cache when Rodney checked in. Here's a photo of the cousins just hanging out together for a bit.

After treating Rodney to a flight to Maryland, I could not get to the cache I had aimed for in the Baltimore area. (Klause's Keg of Joy) So, Rodney flew back to Texas with me & I'll take him to Miami next week. Maybe I'll be able to not only locate, but reach, a cache there.

Since I'm heading to Baltimore tomorrow, I went & recovered Rodney so he can travel along with me. I can't get him all the way to his home cache, but he'll be safely housed at one in the Baltimore area. By the way, Rodney had no travelling papers, so I'm going to print his home page to stick in the baggie with him.

  • Rodney - helping me log my finds I decided to give Rodney some air -- after all, he'd been in the baggie inside the hotel for a whole week. So, he's supervising as I log today's finds. I'll get him to help with the packing tomorrow morning & allow him to pick a comfortable spot in the suitcase for his trip to Baltimore.

Picked him up to take on our trip. However we may not be heading toward maryland now so may move him to another cache in Dallas.
