Travelbug introduction
So I got a collection of travelbugs today. I am going to launce my first one in the next couple days.
For those that don't know, Travelbugs are a geocaching gadget. Basically you buy a dogtag from the geocaching cartel, and then you can attach it to an item and drop it in a geocache. Other Geocachers can pick it up and take it to another cache, and it gets passed around from place to place. Sometimes they accumulate thousands of miles. Some of the Travelbugs have specific missions that they are attempting to accomplish..
I am going to attach a Thermochron iButton to my travelbug and send give it the mission to get as hot as possible in the summer and as cold as possible in the winter, then return home to me, so that I can read the tempuratures and send token prizes to the Geocaches who helped it get hotest or coldest.
Such silly fun. I think it will be a good thing to waste time tracking for a year or so... Plus, my iButton will no longer be gathering dust.
