Hi, I am sure you have heard of me, so I don’t need to introduce myself. As you might have heard in the media,I have recently ended a 40+ year relationship my longtime boyfriend. Kenny and I tried to hold things together, but in the end, we both just knew our relationship was no more than a shell of what it once was.
So now that I am on my own and free for the first time since, oh, the 1960s, I have decided to travel. While I have done just about everything an independent and free-thinking single girl can do, there are still some sights in our beautiful country I have not yet seen. Each of the 50 states (and DC) has one sight or activity I have not yet seen or done, and today I am embarking on a quest to visit each state and do those things. If you can help me on my journey, please take me with you to one of my destinations, take my picture, log my journey (including my photo) at geocaching.com, and send me on my way.
I come complete with a list of my 51 adventures, one for each state and DC. If you decide to help me on my journey, please check off what I have accomplished so I don't inadvertently go to the same place twice! Also, if you wish to contribute to my wardrobe (I am dressed for California, my home), feel to put new clothes in my bag so I am always properly dressed.
Note on January 8, 2007: I've several requests to include the list of destinations, but couldn't find it (several computers ago)...but yay! I found it today. I am adding it to the cache page for y'all, and thanks for keeping Babs going!

About to be rainy again, so decided to go ahead and drop off the TB today. She has a new dress and is little bit further east than before.
Hidden within a foot of GCH001 with similar cover material.

D'oh! Just missed a trip to the Grand Canyon by 2 days!! And next trip to Oklahoma City isn't for another month. But, I saw the "Please give me lots of gifts!" request too and I know with the mounds of Barbie stuff around the house, we can fulfill at least one wish! 🙂 Plus, she's a bit too dressed up to be hiding in the woods. Will try to move it a bit further east towards the Alabama-Coushatta Reservation.

Picked this girl up today. She is in need of some fresh air and a bath. We will see about trying to get her to a destination before we send her on. Pics of her Austin Adventure to follow...
