Discovered this shortly after it was dropped into the cache. I just got home from work and was organizing a few things when I looked outside and saw certain Geocachers walking away. By the time I got to the window it was too late but thanks for sharing this TBug and taking the butterfly Geocoin and the Banana TBug to move on.

We wanted to log her visit here since it is a really neat cache. A hollowed out book in our home library where we spend lots of time. See the posted photo. The cache has not been visited much so we will place her tomorrow in a travel bug site so she gets on the road again. We enjoyed her company, we had lots of audio books to listen on our trip.
