Current Goal

I have already been to Alaska and back. Now I want to visit Wheatheads all over the world. Right now, I am on my way to Virginia Tech to visit Macguy and EngMike.

About This Item

Ms. Monkey

Sol found me crying in the back of a K-Mart in Virginia. He asked me if it was because I was living in the toy isle of a large bankrupt corporation, but I told him that in fact it was because I was longing for my true love, Mr. Monkey, and he was far away in Alaska. Sol told me that Valentine's Day was fast approaching, and suggested that I begin a pilgrimage to take me to see my love.

It is Valentines Day, and in honor of the occasion, I am starting my journey to be with my true love, Mr. Monkey. I just love his dark brown eyes, the way he screeches, and oh how I long for him to eat the bugs out of my hair. He lives in Talkeetna, Alaska and operates the internet webcast called Whole Wheat Radio. You can tune in and chat with him there. Please tell him of my whereabouts and let him know that I am on my way. You can also talk with Jim and Esther, the people he keeps locked up with him in his cabin. He is training them to be circus performers.

Here is a picture of my true love:

There is one geocache in Talkeetna, called "Talkeetna Treasure" by Larsen Family from Michigan. However, I am afraid that it might be gone by the time I get there, or Mr. Monkey might not have a GPSr to come find me. If you find me in Talkeetna, would you please help me get to Talkeetna Travel? They will help me find Mr. Monkey and plan my future travel arrangements. I especially want to go visit Jondo U.K. and Dublin, Ireland after I make it to Alaska.

Thank you for your help in this most important journey!

Love and Kisses,
Ms. Monkey

Travel Update: May 13, 2004 Ms. Monkey to Travel The World

After a journey of 401 days and 5113.8 miles, Ms. Monkey finally made it to Talkeetna to see her lost love, Mr. Monkey, Operations Manager of Whole Wheat Radio.

Ms. Monkey arrived at Whole Wheat Radio on March 22nd! She and Mr. Monkey immediately asked for privacy so we left them alone. They were very quiet for 3 weeks.

Then there was an argument.

This is really all I know. She doesn't like to talk about it much. In any case, she hiched a ride back to the east coast via Esther's luggage in the cargo space of a 777. When she got here, she met Cousin Monkey.


Cousin Monkey with Ms. Monkey

They have been hanging out together, but again romance was not in the cards. As it turns out, Cousin Monkey is a former travel agent for the circus. He is willing to help Ms. Monkey plan her future travels, but they need your help.

Ms. Monkey is interested in traveling the world. She doesn't want to go just anywhere though. She needs to visit fun, interesting people. Ms. Monkey finds that Wheatheads are some of the most fun and interesting people she has experienced. Therefore, she has decided to visit as many Wheatheads as possible. Will it be Fresh in California? Jondo or The Farmer's Wife and the Mice in the UK? Jeroen in the Netherlands? A trip to Canada? Japan? Possibly a visit EngMike right here on the east coast? Or maybe she will rush off to visit YOU! Wheatheads are all over the place and Ms. Monkey can't make up her mind.

She's still trapped in a tight cache. I hope someone will rescue her before winter sets in.

Please help me ... I'm stuffed into a container that's a little tight for my liking. I was pretty stinky (musty) before JJTJ found me. He aired me out and gave me some sort of scented necklace. I like it and boy do I smell fresh. Mr. Monkey will be pretty happy to smell me when I return.

My previous owner was quite good to me. He brought me to Annapolis, MD and New Jersey to find a new home, but all of the caches were too small.

Please rescue me ... it's hard to breathe in here ...

Retrieve It from a Cache 11/18/2004 JJTJ retrieved it from A Gem in the Villa Virginia   Visit Log

"Wild Thing ... You make my heart sing." Wow, our first travel bug - actually, our first found cache. Ms. Monkey wasn't too happy when we freed her. She was a little musty. So, I'll be airing her out and putting her in a better home (baggie) to keep her fresh. She may even end up travelling with an air fresher friend. Anyway, she's a sweetheart and was glad to be released. We'll probably drop her off in Annapolis, Md. this weekend so some sailor can show her the world.

  • Cheers, JJTJ
  • Ms. Monkey with an Eskimo OK, it's not an eskimo, it's an American Eskimo.  Ms. Monkey and her new, uh, necklace along with Princess in Leesburg, VA.  Ms. Monkey has been airing out for a week to get rid of her musky smell.  The "necklace" is definitely helping.

Grab It (Not from a Cache) 4/11/2004 Triple-S grabbed it   Visit Log

Wow, she made her journey all the way to Alaska in just over a year! Unfortunately, it looks as though the romance was not meant to be. She hitched a ride back via Esther's luggage in the cargo space of a 777. It was a rough ride, but she's safe for now. She is apparently planning her future exploits. Stay tuned for details as they develop...

Then there was an argument.

Ms. Monkey packed her things and left in a huff. She is apparently on the move again. She may be headed back to the East Coast. I hope we hear from her again sometime soon.
