Oops left off the travel bug number (It's in the subject of the post to the other forum) It's 448686 ----- Original Message ----- From: TKLNHL To: Geocache STL List Sent: Saturday, April 24, 2004 9:41 AM Subject: [GeoStL] Travel bug Etiquette? Here's a message I just posted to the OKIC forum. Does anyone here have thoughts on what we should do with this bug? Just send it on it's way? Sure wish we had paid closer attention to the physical log book at the cache.. but not sure that would have been much help ... Hi! We're in St. Louis, MO and have picked up a TB from your area. And that's about where my info stops... Last weekend we picked up a travel bug in a cache called The Pit http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=df18e0d6-6c64-44f4-84d5-6044a4febafc It's a nicely done bug -- looks like a little Crusader for a playset, has the tb tag attached as well as a copper plate with the following info: Geo Explorer Ken Schmitt Rockport IND 47635 Geotracker2 AT Hotmail.com There are also an additional 50 copper plates to take as a momento when you move the bug from state to another. Here's our "dilemma". The bug was not logged into the cache. We think we remember reading in the physical log book that the bug was left around April 11 (We think). The TB number resloves to KTD47635 who released it Dec 23, yet has not logged it into a cache since then. Actually, that ID shows no activity since December 27. I've emailed all available emails through gc.com and the hotmail address on the tag. I've even emailed the owener of the bug's destination cache GCA62A (Riverfront Cache in Rockport Indiana) and they are not familiar with the bug owner. I could, I suppose, just grab the bug from the owner but that's not really "polite" -- plus, if that ID has not logged 4 motnhs ... If you look at the Rockpport Cache, there is a log from the bug owner (In November I believe) with a picture ! If anyone has any information on this bug very nice bug, please let us know. Thanks!
