+sundialman Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 APB on lost travel bug Snorelex the traveler. Last seen in All American Box Reprise in VA. If found please notify his owner sundialman and contact authorities. Here is a link to his photo. http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=260777 He is unarmed and made of plastic and generally suffers from either sleep apnea or narcolepsy. He has never ventured out on his own. Please send a note if you happen to see him sleeping in some cache or gutter or some den of ill repute. Please be kind to him. I think he may be just a kid but it is hard to tell with plastic figures. (Sob, Sob...cough, sniffle) Quote Link to comment
+Henki Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 He's only been gone less than a month. Maybe he's just trying to find himself. I wouldn't worry just yet; you know how kids are (assuming plastic kids are the same as flesh ones). Quote Link to comment
+sundialman Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Thaks for the thoughts. I got an email that he isn't in the Cache where he is listed. I'm getting worried. It's not like him to run off without leaving a note. I left a picture of him on a milk carton in the ITRAC thread. Quote Link to comment
+JMBIndy Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I'm sure he's just out partying and having a good time prior to settling down for a serious journey. Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 For whatever reason, some people move travel bugs without logging them. I just had one move 30 miles that way. I've also seen bugs disappear for a year, the get picked up from a cache a long distance away. My suggestion is to log him into the cache you found him in, then log him out, and move him along on his journey. Quote Link to comment
+sundialman Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 This possibility dawned on me yesterday when I sat down to log 5 or 6 caches for the weekend. I thought that maybe I forgot something when I was logging things in. I must give my offspring time to germinate in the wild before they revela themselves again, I suppose.

Solarus Circus Hominus Your tb is possibly hanging out with mine who has been on the lamb for almost 9 months now. Didn't last in a cache for 1 month, got picked up and appearently kidnapped. Still waiting for ransom note. Hope is fading fast. Edited May 1, 2006 by cachesharks Quote Link to comment
+sundialman Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 CHin up CacheSharks (Gills up??) We will get through this somehow. I am thinking of starting a support group for the parents of lost travel bugs and geocoins. I'm trying to think of a name for the group..... Quote Link to comment
+Eartha Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 The other two TB's you dropped off were together in the same baggie, someone grabbed them thinking they were travelling together. Was Snorelax in the same baggie? You could email them and ask. Quote Link to comment
+sundialman Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 Snorelax was offered the option of travelling with the other 2 but he refused. "I only go (yawn) first class and I require a sleeper berth." This may have been his undoing but plastic toys will be plastic toys and you can only train them for so long before you have to trust their judgment. Quote Link to comment
