Need help retrieving travel bugs in limbo

What a great site! I just joined. Thought there was a bug I could rescue, but was moved in Aug, but the person hadn't logged it. I put the cacher and the owner in contact and hopefully that bug will be back on the radar. I also liked the bug race site and tried putting one of my races on there to see how it works: http://www.tb-run.com/show-race-PIRATERACE

Very neat site idea . . .I checked it out and joined. Thanks for the info.

We too have many travelers that are either sitting in a cache somewhere, in someones possession or have just flat disappeared. It's a shame that so many of them don't move like they should! (I was at an event earlier this fall where they were discussing USA travelers and those from other countries. It seems they only go missing or get left in the USA. Cachers in other countries seem to move them right along and they rarely get stolen or lost!) I've joined the TB rescue but the only one that was lost near me was an hour drive and it had been reported as missing from the cache! Poor, poor little travelers!

I thought I had posted about this a while back, but maybe I forgot. There's a great website called TB Rescue that you can find at: www.tb-rescue.com/index.rescue.php

There are people all over that will help you move stuck TBs. I encourage everyone to join so you can rescue TBs that end up near you!

It's sitting in M.E.G.A. XXIV in Apache Junction, AZ GC27DEY.

From what I gather, they are supposed to have monthly hunts. I don't know if they remove this cache each time, until the next hunt. It's a shame though - I had high hopes that this bug was going places :-) Not a big deal. I'll be AZ next year and I'll go hunt for it.

There really isn't anything you can do once you have emailed the CO unless you know someone else in that area or someone from your area that is going there. Where is it?

Hi all,

What would you do? Some of my travel bugs have been put into caches that seem to be inactive. They're too far from my home for me to go get them. I've emailed the cache owner to ask if there's a problem. How do I encourage people to go get my poor, lonely little bug?
