Current Goal

Travel and laugh at those things that rust. You may take pictures of me next to gobs of rust so that I may gloat at my superiority. Let me know of any other great uses I have. I also fit into many smaller caches.

Picked this travelbug up from the new Whistle Stop cache. We will find him some rusty things to visit and help him keep moving.

  • Rusted Nuts anyone Rust Proof got a chance to gloat next to this larger but less fortunate nut on an large old pipe we found. Seems a curious ant wanted to mug it up for the photo.

Too bad I dropped off Screwed Up TB yesterday! It might have enjoyed traveling together with the nuts for awhile.

Don't worry if you job is small
Or your rewards are few.
Remember that the mighty oak
Was once a nut like you.

After logging the cache, we walked on down to the beach. There we found a rusty old bedspring and, better still, several rusting old launcher rails. It seemed a perfectspot for this TB to "gloat" for awhile. After taking the attached photos, went back to the cache, dropped the bug, and updated the log.

  • If only they'd made these rails out of brass!
