Current Goal

This bug commemorates the day in August 2000 when my brother and I were each hit by lightning in Yellowstone National Park.

This bug would like to visit areas near some of our camping adventures (though of course there are no caches in the national parks): Yellowstone NP; Glacier NP; the national parks of Utah; Yosemite and Sequoia NPs; Redwoods NP; the Canadian Rockies.

Just don't hang on to it for too long, or you might be the next one struck!

Found with my daughter on a cool rainy day in Calgary. We actually have been touched by lightning ourselves, as our house was struck in May 2006. Luckily we weren't home at the time, but it took a few months to rebuild and get back in. I will be interested in reading the story behind this TB.

This is a most interresting TB. Saw it in this cache and decided to move at the earliest to a new location.
