About This Item

Hi, my name is Sparky. Let's play tag.

Every year at Halloween, Grandma would find the biggest pumpkin. It has always been named Mr. Fatty. Grandma and the grand kids would paint decorate it and drop it on one of her kids' porch. If the pumpkin landed on our porch, we had to find another family member and leave the pumpkin on their porch. Sometimes, it found it's way into cars and trucks, school lockers and at places of business.

With 'Sparky', I wanted to do the same thing and have it travel the world geocacher style. If you receive this, 'dip' or 'drop' it in your closest geocache next to your home coordinates and give it to somebody else. They will either grab it from you or from the geocache that you dropped it in. This is NOT to be left at geocaches or geocache locations. Let's see how far we can go and what places we can see. Pictures and video would be a great addition to your logs.

No touch backs.

    What an amazing weekend. I can't even keep track of all of the places from IN through NY I ended up! But I will say that I ran across this TB at some point of my trip as well! Anyhoo Thank you for sharing this with us all at (or around) ASP Geobash! Also sorry ahead of time if I double log any of these, as with any good mega, it is hard to remember where all you have been and what all you have seen :)

    Was 'gifted' with this TB while attending Indiana Spring Picnic. We have just the cachers in mind to hand this off to. We'll be camping in their backyard this weekend & kayaking on the Kalamazoo River with them. Plans are to leave this on their front porch and see how long it takes them to notice. Thanks for sharing!!
