For those of you new to the sport/hobby or you simply don’t know travelers – travel bugs, geocoins, pathtags, etc.  are serialized (numbered) items that are placed into a geocache with [...]]]> http://www.thegeocacher.com/geocaching-events-and-travel-bugscoins/feed/ 4 http://www.thegeocacher.com/the-eclectic-penguins-waddled-in-from-england/ http://www.thegeocacher.com/the-eclectic-penguins-waddled-in-from-england/#comments Fri, 16 Jan 2009 23:14:28 +0000 billnpegz http://www.thegeocacher.com/the-eclectic-penguins-waddled-in-from-england/
