Anyone Know This Geocacher?

[+GoaTSniFFer]

Does anyone know punkispatoo? He/She/They retrieved my travel bug Tex the Turtle (TBH9B7) from the cache PIPPY'S Holiday Cache (GCKTRP) on Thanksgiving (11/25/04). I have sent e-mails but they return undeliverable. The cacher has not logged back in to GC since 11/26/04.

 

I fear Tex could be gone. Does anyone know the cacher and maybe give me a hand getting Tex back on the road again?

 

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the club of those of us who have lost travel bugs. I have one that a Boy Scout Troop picked up and then never went caching again. And I thought they were trustworthy.

 

I have e-mailed several owners on occasion, to no avail.

Yeah you would figure that the Boy Scouts would be trustworthy for sure.

 

It is a bummer...Tex was one of my first two TBs I released. I have a whole series of these toys I am slowly releassing.

 

Maybe someday Tex will show up again, but my hopes are low at the moment. If anyone knows this user please let me know.

 

Thanks!

I have lost 4 travel bugs and 3 geocoins in similar manners... over the past year e-mailed have never been returned.

 

You can keep trying or place the travel bug in the travel bug graveyard.

Dare I jinx myself? I have never lost a travel bug or a geocoin - they just keep moving along. I suppose it's hit and miss.

You're just lucky. I've lost 3 TBs. One to the first person who took it.
