This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

Flat Stanley is a Travel Bug Dog Tag Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

If you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

As you take me with you on your travels, take a pic and add a pin to my sweater. 

The initial goal when my daughter released Flat Stanley in 2007 was just to travel as far as possible and collect pins from around the globe. Now, more that 10 years later, we're thinking it might be cool to one day return back home (in another ten years or so) for her son or daughter (and their class) to meet Stanley.  He's had a great trip so far -- hoping his next ten years are equally exciting.

If you're going on a trip, or know a fellow cacher who is, take or pass him along so he can see the world.

If you have a chance to take and upload a picture, we'd love to see where he is and how Stanley is all decked out now with all his pins. 

Thanks for keeping him warm and showing him a good time.
