About This Item

Granny Butterfly was found in a cache while on a trip across the United States. We (PizzaBoy age, 16 years; Granny, age 72 years; and HappyFrog) traveled to different places of United States history during the summer of 2004. These places are places that have changed the life within the United States.

Sadly Granny passed away on the 26th of June 2005. Granny Butterfly was lost in a cache, but I am rereleasing another Granny Butterfly in Granny's memory. Please keep her traveling and think about how history is being made everyday.

Sites of Historial Interest that Granny Butterfly has been to: George S. Patton Memorial Museum, Ronald Reagan Memorial, Gettysburg Battlefield, PA, a border defense system of Ancient Rome in Germany, an old abandoned house in Germany, a federal fortress Ulm, an abacus.

While Granny loved history, she also had earned her Ph.D. Biology and learned Germany while going to school, so she would have enjoyed touring Germany and visiting the cache: Small Botany (where one needed to learn about the different plants in the area, because she loved plants).

What is an important spot of history where you live?
