I like the boomerang idea, & I hope it stays in circulation long enough for you to receive it again. I love the idea of Travel bugs & Geocoins & was very excited to receive my very first tags earlier this week. After some research on the forums, I sent off #TB4JA9X & am anxiously awaiting its first log. If it manages to survive awhile without getting stolen or lost, or if it ever reaches its goal, I'll probably try to have it travel back to me. Thanks for the idea.

Today I released my very first Travel Bug into the wild. Taking advice from this forum thread, I selected a item of little value but still pretty neat & secured it to the Travel Bug with a length of aircraft cable & a heavy duty crimp. You'll notice the ID number is not in the photo. Any feedback is appreciated. It's mission is to travel far & wide in search of a lock which it can open.

I joined geocaching.com last weekend & found my first cache on Hallowe'en. I took out a Travel Bug & will be sending it along very soon. I've since ordered some of my own & this thread has been very helpful in preparing them for their journeys. Thanks to everyone for contributing to this very educating thread.
