Current Goal

It's on the road for another adventure!!! Now that we've moved (again) this TB's new goal is to meet us in our home just outside of Washington DC - anything near zip 22152 is fine.

About This Item

The Real Travel Bug (before surgery)

We found this little guy in a cache while visiting PA called Bug Off! by the REALbug (now called SBUX). Thought it would make a great travel bug so Dad did a little surgery (Sorry windows) and now it's ready to go!!! The name is obviously in honor of it's true Mom. We hope that it will keep coming home and we can send it out on many journeys with the goal of returning back home once again. Thanks for moving the REAL Travel bug on it's way. Let us know if he has any special trips on the way. Pictures are great too - my kids love watching the moves and seeing where it is.

I just started geocaching while on vacation in Hawaii. I was very happy to find it! I brought it to CA for a couple of days and I'll be dropping it off in TX soon. I'm happy to help the Bug get closer to what I consider my REAL home. Virginia is for lovers! (and love bugs too)

  • Brief visit in L.A.
