Current Goal

Reynardine is in a race with other travel bugs from the San Francisco Bay Area to GCGBGB, "Last Delivery Cache" in London, England. The race was started on July 16, 2006 at the 2nd Annual Roaring Camp event in Felton, CA.

Here are the requirements to complete in order to finish the race:

1. After starting in California, the TB must visit 5 other states in the U.S. In each state, the bug has to be dropped by a different cacher.
2. After having visited the 5 other states, the TB needs to reach GCGBGB (Last Delivery Cache) in London, England.

Thanks for helping Reynardine reach his goal!

About This Item

Reynardine front

Reynardine is a Folkmanis finger puppet in the shape of a fox. The character of Reynardine the fox in British folklore has always fascinated me. He is the cunning fox who is both the actual fox and symbol of the rogue who tempts away young maidens. I know many fun songs about Reynardine such as this one:

The Fox
sung by Steeleye Span
on their album Tempted & Tried

You can hound me now you've found me
But I'm far more cunning than you
I'm a shy fox, I'm a sly fox
And I'll teach you a lesson or two
I'll run you through the hawthorn hedge
and tear your dogs to shreds
I'll lead you from the open fields
into the flower beds
I'll lead you from the open fields
into the nearest town
And take you to my hunting ground

Chorus:
Run, run, I won't give in
Run, run, I'll never give in
Run, run, run, I won't give in
Run, run, run, I'll never give in

You can hound me now you've found me
But I'm far more cunning than you
I'm a brown fox, I'm a town fox
And I'll teach you a lesson or two
I'll introduce electric fence
to every horse and hound
And watch the horses suffering
upon the stoney ground
I'll lead you from the open fields
into the nearest town
And take you to my hunting ground

Chorus

Ich arbeite mich gerade durch tausende Fotos von meinen vielen Cachertouren. Dabei habe ich auch dieses schöne Kleinod entdecken können, weiß leider nicht mehr, wo das war. Jedenfalls vielen Dank fürs discovern 🙂🙂

My son wanted to keep this cute little guy, but I explained that he is in a race. We'll move him along smartly, and try to get him to another state. So far Reynardine has been to Nevada and Colorado. It's time for him to move along. We'll take care of him.

Cute little guy! I was not sure if I could help this bug. So, I left it for another cacher to move on.
