Current Goal

Blue has been wandering in search of Steve for nearly 8 years now.    She originally was searching colleges and universities around the world, but Steve has long since graduated.    It's been a great adventure thus far, but the kids that first sent Blue on her mission are growing up and one is even himself starting to think about his own college plans.    So, we'd like to see Blue work her way back to the U.S.    If anyone is heading this way, it would be great if you coud bring her along.  Otherwise, get her near an airport in hopes that someone else might pick her up.    If she can work her way to Scotland, that woud be great too ... we have friends that can locate her there!   And as always, we love to see pictures of her travels along the way.

About This Item

Lonely Blue

I'm so sad and lonely!  My owner Steve has gone away to college and left me at home with his evil brother Joe.  Unfortunately Steve left no forwarding address and after a year he hasn't come home, not even for summer break!  He's been sucked into the vacuum of higher education!   I need to rescue Steve from his certain peril!

Can you help Blue find her way to Steve?  Or at least help her have a good time while she tries?

Dropping her off today so someone else can hopefully help her out.

Rescued Lonely Blue from hideaway in the rocks. Hope she appreciates the bruises received in the process.
Will drop her off in England after visiting some (more) colleges.

Looks like Blue has been having some fun in Switzerland! Three little kids back in the US have been waiting nearly a year for somebody to take pictures of Blue at colleges. Somebody please move Blue to some more highly visited campus locations, maybe even bring her back to the US, and please, please, please, take her picture! Thanks!
