Dreaming of a Sourth Carolina Xmas!

That's the name of our new travel bug that we started on its way this morning.

We recently learned that the the sister and brother-in-law of one of our very good friends are fellow geocachers. They go by the geo-name of "canuman" and they live in South Carolina. They recently sent a travel bug on it's way to California, specifically, Roseville, CA. If it gets here, we will take our friend over to find and retrieve it (she is already beginning to show interest in geocaching).

We could just sit back and watch it's progress, or, we could start one ourselves and head it towards South Carolina. We, being obsessed geocachers, decided to send one on its way and to take it one step further, we decided to have a race and see which TB makes it to its destination first. I could even take it one step further and say that the owner of the losing TB has to personally visit the final destination. That wouldn't be fair, though, because Ann really wants Sharon & Ron to come out here for a visit so we can meet them. If we go back there, she would miss all the fun. So, I guess, we will just have to settle with a hearty congratulations to the owner of the winning TB.

We will post the progress of these two bugs on this blog periodically.
