Chaos Team - welcome - from a fellow southern tip of Indiana cacher.

 

Yup - log it and place it. To log it, go to the TB's page (you can click on it's name on the cache's webpage, or you can go to "track travel Bugs" (left side of all geocaching.com pages), then type in the TB # (on the dogtag) in the box in the top right corner.

 

From the TB's webpage, in the top right corner, you'll find "found it? Log it!" - click on that, and fill in the drop down boxes and add your message. (to "find" a TB, you *must* leave a message - even if it's just a . it won't let you leave the log field blank).

 

Once you log that you retrieved it from the cache, it will take the TB off of the cache's webpage and will put it in your "inventory". Then, when you find a new cache and leave the TB there, when you log your find, it will have a box at the bottom where you can highlight the TB and "drop" it in the cache.

 

If you have any problems, feel free to send me an e-mail -- I'll try to explain it better.
