hide & seekers Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 What's the coolest travel bug photo you've posted for a TB or had posted for one of your travel bugs? Our Gretchen-dog, the Polish Shepherd travel bug is near and dear to our hearts, so my husband was so pleased to see this photo. Gretchen's mission is to meet new doggie friends, play in the snow, and also meet cows. This cacher's photo was excellent! Gretchen has only been travelling since September but she's already gone from Indiana to Kentucky to Pennsylvania to New York. Quote
+Wandering Bears Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) SPLAT! was our first TB find. Mrs. Wandering Bears took this great picture when we dropped him off. Edited December 30, 2005 by Wandering Bears Quote
+Teamhawaii1981 & blueicyrose Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 I had a TB "For the Love of the Game" that was actually a travelling cache. Some people took some cool pictures of it. Unfortunately, it has fell victim to the newbie cacher who didn't keep caching. Quote

+ZackJones Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 This is one of my favorites since it is of my You Are Not Forgotten TB Quote
+Team PEZ Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 my buddy GA Cacher's travel bug, The Three Mooges : Dairy, was apparently on the same flight as Mac cause here he is floating about Germany with LORbit Quote
hide & seekers Posted January 1, 2006 Author Posted January 1, 2006 Wow! What great photos everybody! That one of the The Wall is truely powerful. Keep 'em coming everyone! Quote
+Harry Dolphin Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 Here's one of my better TB pictures: Traveling Elmo at the Unisphere at Flushing Meadows-Corona Park: Quote
+greyhounder Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 I love this photo! This is a TB I sent out to have some fun adventures. This photo is exactly what I expected to get!! Bec Quote
The 4 Elements Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 I have a TB I picked up, it wants pics of people picking their noses in public area's...lol, im not. Quote
+NevaP Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 I often post pictures of TBs when I can do something that matches their goals or theme. Cat related TBs get special treatment at our house. Here's The Crazy Cat Lady (ref. TBJCAM) with one of our resident felines. There are more pictures on her page. Quote
+NevaP Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 The Beanie Baby gang at my house tend to party with visiting Travel bugs. Cruising Cat had a great time here. Look close and you can see him at upper right center next to the Ruby Princess. More photos and the whole sordid tale in my 2/2005 logs on his page (ref.TB5C65 ) Quote
+NevaP Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 Last fall I picked up The Ulcer TB (ref. TBH9TT) who is helicobacter pylori , the bacteria that cause ulcers. While he was visiting me the scientists who discovered and named him received a Nobel Prize! The bug posed for a photo with the newspaper headlines and some ulcer producing foods. He's mentioned by name in the article. Quote
+NevaP Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 I've hogged this thread enough but I have to show you the great photo of my O-Pooh bug which was posted by BikerChick. Quote
+greyhounder Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 You know it's a good TB, when your cat approves! Augie was obsessed with this bug (he could sniff it out!) and it had to leave the house quickly, for obvious reasons! Bec Quote
+Team Teuton Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 my buddy GA Cacher's travel bug, The Three Mooges : Dairy, was apparently on the same flight as Mac cause here he is floating about Germany with LORbit Quite a coincidence for two Georgia TBs to end up in the same place. Imagine the odds. Quote
+q22q17 Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 One of my TB's made it to Belgium where the wonderful cachers there took MANY photos with their kitties and the cache that they placed it into! To see all of the photos visit Awful Mad Kitty at: TBM02K I'm not bright enough to figure out how to post the pics in my post........ Quote

+the hermit crabs Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 People have taken lots of cool pictures of our bugs; it's hard to narrow it down to one or two to show here. Some of our favorite bug logs (each of which includes sveral pictures) include: Old Riches' log for Ramblin' Boy -- this was our very first TB, on the very first leg of his journey; it was the perfect beginning with lots of fun pictures. solid-rock-seekers' log for Lonely-Cache TB -- I especially loved the picture of the mountain sunset, even though the TB wasn't in that one. Modac, Veep-Veep, and Fleebings' log for Midas Jeep (and their second log too) -- mostly because of the way they go along with the bug's goal of searching for gold. One other picture that I really like is for our "Missed the Boat" TB, who wants to go on boat rides to make up for having missed the original Ark trip. This one was titled "Where's my ride?", and really captures the theme of the bug: I also like this one, which shows "Griffin the Wonder Dog" with our "Leather Backpack" TB attached to his doggie backpack (the bug's goal is to be photographed hanging on cachers' packs): Quote
hide & seekers Posted February 16, 2006 Author Posted February 16, 2006 bumping this one to the top. . .I wanna see more cool TB photos! Quote
+AuntieWeasel Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 Pretty. This poor TB of mine was supposed to stay in England, but he escaped and has been floating around Europe lately. This photo is from when he was still in the UK. This is in the South Downs. Quote
+Planet Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 I had so much fun with this travel bug. I did have to post another note to make sure the owner knew I wouldn't really do that! Quote

+Team Snorkasaurus Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 The MOONMAN Travel-Bug lands on the moon!!! Motivated by an inspirational visit to some famous astronauts, MOONMAN uses his recently acquired Atlas Rocket to land on the moon! Well, sort of... Actually, this is the moon model at the Griffith Observatory in Hollywood, California. MOONMAN made a number of friends while visiting the observatory and they graciously allowed him to conquer their 6 foot (approx. 2,000,000/1 scale) moon model. At this scale, our little MOONMAN friend would be about 375,000 feet tall! Quote
+Sparrowhawk Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 Step one: Hold the TB up to a cloudy Oregon sky and take a flash pic. Step two. Use Photoshop to erase your hand holding the TB. Add a cool drop shadow. Step three: Enjoy. Quote
+blackjack65 Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 My Dale The Mounty Racer #2 made it to Le Cellier, the Canadian restaurant at EPCOT where I worked over 15 years ago. The Bug Holder even got a picture of it with Chip & Dale themselves! Quote
hide & seekers Posted February 17, 2006 Author Posted February 17, 2006 Nice photos everyone! Here's one I took for a travel bug called Big Boy that passed through my hands last August. And here's the log that went with it: Big Boy was so surprised and excited today to meet his long-lost Great-Uncle Ike! See, Ike left the restaurant business years ago. He just walked off the job one day, mumbling something about hating plaid. He just wasn't sucessful in that line of work. . .and it didn't help that people stared at him a lot because of his extremely pale skin and unfortunate facial birthmark. No one had heard from Ike since that day, but he evidently started up a sign business right here in Mishawaka, Indiana. The family resemblance is unmistakable. Big Boy was very pleased to meet Ike.

+Drgnsrealm Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Pretty. This poor TB of mine was supposed to stay in England, but he escaped and has been floating around Europe lately. This photo is from when he was still in the UK. This is in the South Downs. I was hoping to see a few crop circles in this picture. Wouldn't have that been sweet?? Quote
+the hermit crabs Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 We try to take pictures of most of the bugs we find, usually relating to the bug's name or theme if possible. A bug we picked up a week ago had no specific goal, so I just took a few random pictures of it. This picture is very plain, but I liked how it looked. It was a very blue TB ("Sadie's Bear") and I held it up to a very blue sky on a beautiful day: And I've always liked this picture that we posted for "Hot n Cold Bug" about a year and a half ago, mostly because this is my favorite hold-and-cold combination: Quote
