Ken,
Looks to me like Herbert, Your Schroom Buddy was grabbed by
a certain cacher and taken home and is still in that cachers
possession. The problem is another cacher decided to log the
TB (for what ever reason?) and then replaced it back in the
cache, thus making it look like the TB is stranded High and
dry in the cache...just a theory of course. As for Mi-Co-To
Campfire Club your guess is a good as mine.
One thing that I noted with allot of the TBs that exchanged
hands at this event is several teams logged finds for TBs
(i.e. write down tracking numbers and logging that the TB
was "seen" thus jacking up ones TB count) but did not move
the TB to a different location. Odd behavior if you ask me.
The only metric that counts is D+T...;-)

Hello Geocachers,
2003 Tucson Geocaching Extravaganza has now been archived.
There are two travel bugs that were brought to this event
but haven't been logged by the geocachers who took them.
These include a travel bug that I own, Mi-Co-To Campfire
Club, and a travel bug that I found in Phoenix a week
earlier, Herbert, Your Schroom Buddy.
If you have either of these travel bugs, please go to the
respective travel bug page and enter the six-digit number on
the tag to put it in you inventory before putting it in
another cache. If you find either of those travel bugs in
another cache without it being logged into it, please log
the travel bug into the cache you found it in before
claiming possession of it. Thank you.
