HAVE YOU SEEN THIS NUT???

Just A Nut is MISSING.
(GeoPolice Photo used for identification)

The HooHaa Travel Bug Racer was off to a slow start in the Great HooHaa TB Race GeoChallenge but never failed to bust a nut. Even after many weeks of sitting at the starting line Nut passed the time with fellow TB Racer Gunny's Electric Bug. Their humorous banter that of epic slapdownmanship.

After regailing once again about being part of an actual racing car Nut decided to spend some time in the neighborhood Travel Bug Hotel in Oxford, North Carolina before trying once again to get on the road with the HooHaa Race. That was when everything apparently happened.

I found out about it after I received an email from a fellow geocacher who read about my travel bug racer not moving and wanted to take it to Pennsylvania. Much to his dismay the hexagonal traveller was no where to be found within the cache.

I visited the well known travel bug hotel and confirmed that Just A Nut was indeed gone. So since it was past the normal 48 hour wait period. We called in the authorities; the GeoPolice.


After a thorough investigation and about ten minutes of effort it was concluded that there is not enough evidence to conclude a conclusion.


Even with nearby witnesses who wish not to comment at this time (damn you SpongeBob) the authorities could only speculate the approximate location of Just A Nut before being taken.

The logbook was dry, well kept and even though many people had signed it, no clues to the disappearance had shown inside. There is though one lead of which the GeoPolice are following at this time but refuse to comment about.
I currently am at a total loss and can only hope that Just A Nut will be found soon. Was the travel bug muggled? TB Napped and to be held for ransom? Only time will tell, for now I can only hope it will be dropped soon... Into another cache that is...
Stay Tuned...

Maybe it's in the possession of a cacher that moves about as fast as the bug itself (mine included). If that's the case, they should log it in a few weeks...

You might want to check P.J.'s pockets. I think I overheard a conversation in which he mention a quick trip south. Didn't catch why he was going there...

Aw that sucks! Poor Nut! Maybe it's just a newbie cacher who forgot to log he picked it up? Let's hope for the best...

And in the meantime.. GO HIPPIE GO!

Just John...if it moves as slow as a bug, we should see it pop up in a few weeks and having moved only 2.3 miles. Yep, that wouldn't be so bad...for the rest of us.

From my attorney:

"We utterly deny any charges made by tonka_boy and base it on too much snow and cold getting to him. My client has not been south of New Jersey in many years and said he doesn't plan on going any time soon. Thank you."
