About This Item

Fawkes

Hello! My name is Fawkes! I’m a finger puppet made by Folkmanis, Inc. I’ve been living in southwest Florida for about a year, but my dream is to return to my birthplace: the Folkmanis headquarters in Emeryville, California. You can make me a very happy fox by speeding me along toward my next goal!

FAWKES'S DREAM:
* Set out from Florida!
* Travel from Florida to Emeryville, California!
* Get photographed with a Folkmanis employee! Maybe even the company president!!! Their address is 1219 Park Avenue, Emeryville, CA 94608.
* Take in some local color! Do they let foxes into Athletics games? Do you think UC-Berkeley would mind if I chased some of their squirrels? I’ll go wherever my host wants to take me!
* Return to the cache "Fa-get-a-bout-it" in Ten Mile Linear Park in Fort Myers, Florida!

Discovered It 8/11/2008 freysman discovered it   Visit Log

Discovered this in Ye Olde West Friendswood TB Hotel, but left it there, since a TB Hotel should have a TB in it and I had none with me to leave behind. Took a snapshot with Delicatxan and the TB.

The Tropical Storm Edouard changed my plans for the trip to East Texas so I won't get to an I-10 cache. A new TB hotel opened in my hometown so I put him there. Hope someone else can get him where he wants to go.

Retrieve It from a Cache 7/19/2008 no muggle retrieved it from Pepper's road to no where? Texas   Visit Log

Fawkes has been cooped up in that ammo can at the end of the dirt road to nowhere far too long. It was kind of creepy there, too. I was thinking about a trip to Louisiana for a little gambling. Maybe I can get him to a cache somewhere along I-10 where someone can pick him up and headed in the right direction. Good luck getting home Fawkes!!!!

It sounds like my little Fawkes has had quite an adventure, whether it actually brought him to his destination or not! Let's bring him home. Fawkes's current destination is "Fa-get-a-bout-it," Florida. Thanks, everyone!

Retrieve It from a Cache 12/12/2007 Wee Willy retrieved it from The Parable of the Hidden Treasure Texas   Visit Log

We retrieved you from "The Parable of the Hidden Treasures" cache and that's the only thing I know for sure. Your history of travel is a mystery. Coupl'a Pirates retrieved you from "Afternoon in a Hammock" three day's before your owner placed you there. Coupl'a Pirates apparently terminated their geocaching adventures right after picking you up and did not log you into any cache. The paper accompaning you has the following annotated on it: "The Keen Team found him in Ann Arbor MI, then went to L.A." The Keen Team profile lists his/her occupation as airline pilot with no caches found. Tulsatoe grabbed you while in L.A.. I suspect that he retrieved you from the "TB Hotel Airport" http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=d3fc7148-edbf-427e-88aa-009b62b1fab4 where the The Keen Team had left you. Tulsatoe's log indicates that he assumes that you met your goal of visiting Folkmans, Inc and getting your picture taken with a Folkmans employee because he thought the the camera is full. Well I don't think you accomplished your goal because the camera actually has 16 exposures to go after I took two. Your traking history dipicts a total of 2121 miles traveled. The distance between DFW and LAX is approximately 1232 miles and the distance between DFW and An Afternoon in a Hammock is approximately 1040 miles. The distrance from An afternoon in a Hammock to Ann Arbor is approxiametly 1127 miles and the distance from Ann Arbor to LAX is approximetly 1954 miles. So you've at least traveled 4313 miles so far. I don't know if you'll ever get back to California or Florida, but have a nice trip where ever you go.
