About This Item

My Buddy Bog

In 1989 a friend and I were teens driving from St. Louis to Chicago. At an interstate filling station, a man told us he was out of cash and needed gas, but he wasn't begging. He offered to sell me his tool box for $10. It was loaded with some heavily used but OK stuff, so I bought it. One of the items in the box was this mirror.

Well, it's been over a decade and we're still friends even if we do live 2529 miles apart now. during the summer of 2001 I was out to central California for a visit and a class, and he introduced me to Geocaching. I'm sending this mirror/Travel Bug west in the hope that it can find a way to him.

He lives near N37-25'xW122 so if you can move this bad boy in that direction, I'd be much obliged. In an ideal world, you'd take a picture of you with it and upload it from your location.

See ya!

TL;DR: We don't have the trackable (and feel sorry for you if it means it is still missing), but stumbled upon its discovery code.

The story: I discovered this trackable/coin when I cracked the cache "Msportis Coinlihaus der 2." and then was able to reverse-engineer some Coins/TBs of the owner Msporti as well. By pure chance / luck while testing out possibilities for this I also came across this TB/coin. We hope that it's okay that we discover it, if not, feel free to delete this log. TFTC/TFTT 😉

My three sons, Kyle (6), Kaleb (4) and Kole (2), found this cache after much hunting today. We found the bug and will try to move him west as soon as possible. Brian Kennedy.

Picked up My Buddy Bog today. We will help to move him west when we return to Kansas City next week. We smiled at him and he smiled right back. Headed west.

Thanks

Me second bugger and stumbled on it by surprise. We were just visiting JQ001 Green Lane for a second time to take a couple pictures and this bug jumped up and surprised us. Amazingly this bug heard I'll be traveling west memorial day weekend and he said he'd like to come. Relative has digitial camera at destination so hopefully we'll be able to add pictures to sight.
