Geo Shark Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 can you send a bug to a specific person? I would like to send a bug to my uncle because he would really enjoy Geocaching. Quote Link to comment
+brad.32 Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Yes. I assume you're talking about the TB goal. You could make its destination a cache close to him and he could retrieve it when it arrives, but the problem is how to get it to him if he's not a cacher? The other meaning you might have is sending it to him in the mail, where, again, if he's not a cacher, what is he going to do with it if he doesn't know where a cache is to place it?

Lac Vert Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Hi Geo Shark, My travel bug "To Dad with Love" successfully made it from Toronto to Ventura California. Took a little doing with a few missteps along the way, but that's part of the adventure. In the original statement I asked that people notify me when he got closer to his goal and one geocacher actually took the time to meet with my father over lunch and gave him the TB. Dad was thrilled and so was I. We actually just re-released the TB this weekend when we were down visiting Dad. Go for it! Quote Link to comment
+MtnLion Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Absolutely! I'm in the middle of a so-far very successful TB journey called "Caching Barefoot (to Wil)". It's going to CA from NC to get an autograph from Wil Wheaton. There are about a dozen people who have adopted it. Also see the thread "Autograph Bug".

+pwb Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 We were not able to get a travel bug going right away so me mailed it to California to a friend to put in a cache. Worked out quite well. Rabid Rabbit Quote Link to comment
