Current Goal

Please help me spread my wings far and wide. I'd like to travel around the globe meeting as many of my colorful cousins as possible before returning to Pennsylvania to live out my golden years with "my people." Short bios about the people who find me would be appreciated.

About This Item

It's tough being a butterfly. Life is short. Rain beats down on my delicate wings. Winds blow making flying next to impossible. Plenty of creatures consider me to be a colorful, tasty morsels. Others see me as a collectible. Swaying flowers make landings difficult. Mates are scattered and fluttering about in this madly shifting world. It isn't easy at all you know. Nothing is solid. Just bits of pollen and tastes of nectar and shifting breezes and a sun that won't stay put. All that change gets me to wondering. Before the Big Change, there were solid branches for crawling and substantial leaves for chewing. My many feet were solidly attached to home, and my pace was regally slow. Now it's here and there, always on the move. Can't go back, though. Can I?
The butterfly is noted for its Big Change. But life holds change for all of us, and as butterflies, we'll see more of the world than we saw before. The wind blows us to hew heights and presents new perspectives. I certainly wouldn't want to go back. Would you?

    Retrieve It from a Cache 9/26/2020 CraigAndJustine<3 retrieved it from Keep It Rolling! California   Visit Log

    Picked up Miss Butterfly on 9/26/20 from a cache in Murrieta, California. Hope to take her somewhere soon.
    We are a family of 7, but were just out today with our two youngest kids for their second time caching, so we were exited to come across a trackable to teach them about!
    Thanks so much for the adventure, and we’ll update soon. 🥰🦋
