    Well it's on the coast in the redwoods, but still a long way from Hawaii.

    Looks like this TB never made it to Hawaii for Christmas. Maybe 2005.

    This neat little TB is late, but I'll move it along and hope it's there by Chrstmas 2005. (Can it really have been almost 12 years since I was last on Oahu?)

    I love hand made travel bugs, and I just loved this tree. I am taking it to the geocaching party in Cupertino on Feb 27th in the hopes someone there will be going to Hawaii. (We expect a large turnout.) In the meantime I am going to make a real laminated goal tag for this TB. Right now, the tree is traveling in a battered plastic bag with a very worn out piece of paper. When I am done I will post a photo of it.

    • Coastal Tree at a geocaching event in Cupertino This is your tree in the hands of DavidT, one of the key planners of geocaching events in Northern California. You can see the tag I made it peeking out from behind the tree.

    This tree doesn't look like it's getting much attention or mileage towards Hawaii in this cache. I'll move it and see if it has any more luck in a new spot. Happy New Year!

    I dropped the tree TB today at "Turtle Hill". This cache, in SF, seems to be very active, and so maybe someone on their way to the big island will stop by soon. Besides, One of the approach streets is named Aloha. If that is not a sign, don't know what is.
    Good luck in its travels, hope it makes it home for Christmas.
