Geocaching- Kentucky Boi Travel Bug (TB50B3)

Posted on Written by

Back in early 2000 I started Geocaching it was like many new technological things and many people had never heard of it back then but now lots of people are enjoying Geocaching.  It is a great sport that involves travel, outdoors, exercise and use of computer/internet.geocache

We hid a Geocache on the property of our family owned bed and breakfast on July 6, 2003.  As of today River’s Railroad Cache has been found 218 times!  The cache is named after my nephew River Priest.  He continues to contribute to the success of the Geocache by checking on it frequently.

We have had a great time watching and talking to the people who find the Geocache. They have taken many pictures of our downtown.  Many people have just came to Henderson KY just to find this geocache.

kentuckyboi-20090228 This is too funny.  Back on November 14, 2002 I was vacationing in the Keys of Florida.  I hid in a very popular Geocache a travel bug called “Kentucky Boi”.  That travel bug along with the Barbie Head attached has traveled over 10,000 and is presently trying to make it back to Kentucky.    You might might be able to view the travel bug here but it might require you to be a member of Geocaching.com.

Henderson KY has several Geocaches.  One that is quite fun to find is very close to the caboose that is located in the back on the new Henderson Welcome center.  The name of that cache is called “Welcome to Henderson”.

Just this week I installed the Geocaching iPhone application.  More on what I think of that later.  So far it looks like another killer application for the iPhone.
