Moxie's mission is to travel as far and as fast as possible so that he can win the EpicGCS2 trackables race that he starts out in. Please make Moxie move quickly and continuously from cache to cache and to as many events as he can attend.
One of our very first geocache hides was named "Moxie Returns". The purpose of that cache was to honor the return on one of our (then) favorite restaurants here in New Hampshire. The restaurant was called "Bugaboo Creek" and for the longest time we would dine there regularly, i.e. about once a week. But then one day we stopped by for dinner and were shocked to see a note taped to the front door that stated that the restaurant had permanently closed!
Not only were we shocked, but we were told that the employees found out about the closing the same way we did!
After about a year had gone by, we "caught wind" (from one of those former employees) that the restaurant would be opening in a few months and just in time for Christmas.
The mascot of that restaurant is a large moose named "Moxie", so we named our cache "Moxie Returns". Moxie DID return as rumored, so we were proud of our new cache at that time.
Sadly, we recently found out that the restaurant had AGAIN closed for business and Moxie took off with them. Were Moxie is now is unknown, so we have created this trackable to represent him, and to have him travel worldwide (if necessary) to find his older cousin.
Recently, we decided to archive our "Moxie Returns" geocache, because it no longer held the meaning our value of it's original intent. This was our first EVER cache archive, and we really miss the old moose!
As stated in the mission identified above, "Moxie Moose" starts his journey in a trackables race that started on 9/17/2014. This race will last exactly one year, so his first mission is to move as fast and as far as possible while searching for his larger cousin.
