Johnny Thunder is a Lego figure originally released in Cleveland, Ohio but who now makes his home in Cincinnati. His goal is to visit the cache closest to the geographical center of the continental United States, as well as the caches closest to the 8 extreme points of the continental US (NW, N, NE, W, E, SW, S and SE)
For more information, visit his website at http://www.insidecorner.com/geocaching/johnny/
If anyone has a digital camera and can take a picture to upload that would be cool. Let's see if we can get him to the geographical center of the US in Kansas first!
The links below are the caches that are the closest to Johnny's 9 goals as of now. As more geocaches are placed, this could change.
The act of finding, for example, the geographical center of the US, or the North-eastern most point of the US is not an exact science. For more information on why I chose the points that I did, feel free to browse Johnny's website

It always amazes me that even after 13 years "in the wild" that this guy is still around!

I found Johnny Thunder on the side of the road near the visitor center at Hurricane Ridge. This was the first Travel Bug that I have encountered. I did not know about them before.

It seems Johnny didn't need to stay long in the Lakeside Hollow cache, we found him shortly after he was left there. We're taking him to Ocean City, MD with us next weekend to get him farther east, and hopefully down to the OuterBanks to achieve one of his goals!
