Please drop this item in rural OR Premium Member Only caches. Do not place it in an urban cache or abandon it at a caching event. Transport the bug in the original plastic bag for as long as the bag lasts; the bag keeps the trackable clean and prevents tangling with other items. Otherwise, take the travel bug anywhere you wish. No permission is needed to leave the U.S.

Photos in the travel bug logs are appreciated. I will be re-post them here, where they can be seen by other cachers.

About This Item

brownpatternedroundwood

This is one of a series of large beads obtained from different places and converted into travel bugs. They are named for Texas towns with interesting names or histories.

Byspot was in southwestern San Jacinto County. The post office, established in 1899, was originally called Teddy. About 1903, however, J. O. H. Bennett changed the community's name to Byspot, a name derived from spelling his wife Topsy's name backwards and adding a B. Bennett also owned and operated a tram railroad at Byspot, an indication that the area was once the site of logging operations. The railroad, which extended to Conroe, was taken over by the Delta Land and Timber Company in 1926. The post office was discontinued in 1921, and the tram road was abandoned in 1931. The community did not appear on 1985 county highway maps or on United States Geological Survey place name lists.

Grabbed from Geocoinfest and taken to Missouri. I'll try to get it placed soon according to it's wishes. If not placed soon, I plan to have all trackables in my possession placed during my trip to St. Louis at the start of November.

As a Committee Member of GCF, I was able to catch a glimpse of many trackables throughout the day. We had quite the assortment inside the event and out. I'm glad yours could make it to the fun!

Dicovered during Geocoinfest 2015 The Sky's The Limit in Omaha, Nebraska. I volunteered at the tracking table during the duration of the event and saw so many nice and cute TBs, beautiful coins and proxies, met many cachers via t-shirts and name tags and saw so many trackables everywhere!! Thanks for sharing, and especially thanks for sending your trackables into the wild.
