Where The H*ll Are The Jeep Tb's

[+Joypa]

Have yet to see any of the new TB's in my area. What gives?

[+welch]

I stole them all !

 

(acutally I haven't seen what yet, but it seems likes its been very slow for them to filter out to be placed, and of course those that are out are usually picked up and move quickely, so slay calm and keeping looking.)

[+Joypa]

 

Can't stay calm!!!!

I SEE YOU WERE IN THE TERRE HAUTE AREA IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAY DIESELDOC PLACED 5-6 IN HIS CACHES LATES LAST WEEK NOT SURE IF THERE ARE STILL THERE OR NOT. i KNOW A COUPLE OF THEM HAVE BEEN PICKED UP

[+Joypa]

No. I was in Brazil on a work assignment. No Jeep TB's there.

[+Car54]

I know I saw one pass through a Lafayette cache this week.

I got one at a function in California.

 

Check out the photo gallery. A few were available:

[+Team Shydog]

Sorry Paul, I grabbed the one at RPW's cache at P-Town SP.

[+Team Tecmage]

I asked in an earlier thread about the WJTBs, not to start an argument, but to avoid what happened last year. We saw a couple of YJTBs move through, but no one in NWI had any to place in caches.

I was thinking that if a few were up this way, they might stick around a little longer.

[+Joypa]

I just returned from a 16 cache trip. Not a single WJTB. Aaargh!

[+Joypa]

I just checked and the closest WJTB to my location is 75 miles away!

[+Team Shydog]

Joypa, you had one eariler today in your back yard at Happy Hollows First. It looks like it got snagged by ADC. I will be putting the one I got today out again tommorrow, but it might be a little bit of a drive North for you. Jeeps are made for off-roading, not city driving you know

[+Car54]

Yep, now that Shydog has picked up the 2nd WJTB we placed, I can confirm that we received two WJTB's in the mail early this past week with instructions to place them in area caches. One got picked up by a new cacher and as we now know, the second one got picked up by a veteran.

 

Hopefully at least these 2 White Jeeps will stay in the area for a while. Thanks, Chris for promising to put it out again so quickly and in the area, too!

 

Joypa, we'll be competing with you now to get one of these so we can log one. Gotta get that icon on our page, ya' know!

 

Mrs. Car54

 

Edited to add that I see the cacher (Boiler Saint) that picked up the 1st WJTB we placed put it in another local cache, where it has aleady been nabbed. Let's keep them traveling around the nearby area long enough to give everyone a shot at them!

I don't know if there are any left to send out, but at the last 2 events I've been to they were raffling off about 30 jeeps each time. They were sent from Groundspeak. Maybe you could do that?

[+Joypa]

Nurse Dave: No, I'd rather just complain bitterly.

 

I am going to check daily and, when one appears, I will leap from my chair at work and sprint to my car, armed with GPS. I will race madly to the cache and grab the bug. Hah!

[+Team Shydog]

Get leaping Paul, "Renshaw" is out waiting to be found as of 8am today.

Good luck

[+Camping Hoosiers]

I just happen to have one and will be dropping somewhere in Clark County this coming week.

[+Joypa]

Team Shydog: Nooooooooooooooooo. I logged on too late to get that one. I do, however want to thank you for depositing one in my general vicinity. Next week I'm going to Banff, which is in Alberta, Canada. Maybe I'll get lucky there.

[+Team GPSaxophone]

No. I was in Brazil on a work assignment. No Jeep TB's there.

Well no wonder. The Jeeps were only distributed to the U.S.

[+Team Shydog]

Sorry Paul. I should have put it one of your caches, as it is, the only 2 WJTB's in the Lafayette area are parked in the same garage.

I just placed one in a cache this Sat.... last I checked it was still in said cache ....

Yeah, I noticed that, too. Sorry, Joypa - we really were trying to drop it close to you.

Still looks like the two WJTB have not moved from that garage! It sure would be nice for the other fine cachers in the Lafayette area to have a chance to log these TBs.

[+Joypa]

No. Wait! I am going to Banff for a week. No dropping WJTB's until I get back. Relax. No hurry.

[+S Keillan]

Fear not, fellow Lafayette geocachers. While it's true that there are a couple of WJTB in possession of the Discovery Duo (my wife and me), they shall be released soon. The only question is, will you be able to find them?

[+S Keillan]

OK, due to a fair bit of complaining, I've got one of the WJTB back into the wild with my new cache. And Joypa, there's a decent chance it will be there when you get back from Banff.

 

Concerning the other WJTB that's in my wife's possession (of which I have no control), I may be able to convince her to keep it in the area if a "suitable" cache pops up around here. My little problem is that there's no caches around that I've not been to. THE GAUNTLET HAS BEEN THROWN.

[+Joypa]

I got the WJTB placed by S. Keillan. My thanks to him. I will now dry my tears and move on. S. Keillan has also reminded me that I should close this thread.
