I maintain records on my trackables. They have the goal to circulate more than five years and to be moved by at least 25 cachers. That is a target rate of five drops per year for five years, or a drop every 73 days. The average drop rate of my trackables in the US is 124 days, in Europe it is 71 days. As of 26-May-24 this trackable had survived for 5.2 years but it had been moved by only 13 cachers, for an average drop every 146 days, or 2.5 drops per year.
Please keep it moving, then drop it in a safe place!
No permission is needed to leave the U.S. While in the U.S., please drop it at an event, in a Premium Member only OR a rural cache near a busy trail or road. Do not place it in an urban, non-premium cache. Transport the bug in the original plastic bag for as long as the bag lasts; the bag keeps the trackable clean and dry, protects the number and prevents tangling with other items. Otherwise, take the trackable anywhere you wish.
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.
Granny's Neck, also known as Old Granny's Neck and Harper's Crossing, was in south central Delta County. The area was settled in 1846 by relatives of Randolph DeSpain, who had been killed with James Walker Fannin, Jr., at Goliad. DeSpain had been awarded the land for his service in war of Texas Independence. The claim was situated on both sides of a major thoroughfare for transporting cotton. Soon after settlement a bridge was built across the South Sulphur River on the highest ridge of land in the vicinity. The new bridge made the road an even more popular travel route. More settlers arrived, including Mary "Granny" Sinclair, matriarch of the Sinclair family. She raised goats on a neck of land that jutted into the river. The community was named for her. The Granny's Neck school, established after the Civil War, had one teacher and still enrolled thirty-two pupils in 1905.
