    Sad news, folks... After all the efforts of finally getting this TB back in Houston these past 3 months, it is now lost forever: see [url=http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?LUID=40c9d216-7354-40d4-9406-dd2b9dbb2763][b]In Memoriam[/b]'s May 17th log entry[/url] and the cache's preceding logs for full details. 👎

    OK, it's ready for being placed back in circulation once more pretty soon... Good luck, li'l TB!

    My precious... back in my hands again! 😎

    I finally got a chance to come by where the TB was dropped off at lunch today... The people at the front desk were VERY nice, all I had to say was "I'm looking for a pair of dog tags attached to a chain..." and the rest is history. 😉 I had a little bit of explaining to do as to what this was all about, but that was purely from an inquisitive perspective; I bet they're thinking that we have way too much time on our hands. 😛

    I'll make a quick virtual dip to indicate where the TB was waiting pick-up all this time (give or take a few hundred feet), and will try to get them "back in the game" shortly.

    Once again, a Big Thanks to [b]PilotMike[/b] for bringing this TB back to the Houston area so quickly. 👍

    Cache on!

    To all local Houston folks on the watchlist:

    I have some good news on the TB's (and some so-so news for myself as I live quite far from Hobby)... I contacted PilotMike re: likelyhood of a potential drop-off in TX (on behalf of LostGuys, I guess), and he DELIVERED in spades!!! Woo-hoo!!! 😎 Trouble is: it's at Hobby and not in a cache, see the note I just got:

    [i]Hi Raven,
    I actually am just passing through HOU airport right now and don't have time to go caching. Instead, I left the TB(s) with the front desk at Atlantic Aviation at the airport. I wrote that [b]anyone who asks specifically for it and knows that PilotMike dropped it off can take it[/b]. Please let me know if you can do it, or if I should post a note on the bug's page so the owner or someone else can do it.[/i]

    [b]Atlantic Aviation[/b] is at:
    7930 Airport Blvd Houston, TX 77061
    (713) 644-6431

    Nowhere near my neck of the woods... Is anyone game on picking them up? Please LMK via GC.com, or else I'll have to go there myself one of these weeks. Thanks!

    PS to PilotMike: a BIG thanks for helping us out, truly appreciated!!!! 👍👍👍

    I stopped in the Bahamas with this one, but couldn't log the miles since the 2 nearest caches are 15 and 50 miles away! 😮

    I was at the Exuma Airport - MYEF http://www.geocaching.com/map/default.aspx?lat=23.56139&lng=-75.87417 .

    This one is attached to another TB, and I'm not quite sure why... Either way, I've got 'em both.
