Teddy Bear Hitchhiker

From: turnercindy (turnercindy@yahoo.com) | Date: 2007-03-16 16:46:47 UTC
We're new to letterboxing, so didn't realize what a hitchhiker was when
we found him. We were also in a hurry, because the park where we found
him was about to close. We left him in his box, but would be glad to
inform his creator where he is, if they can identify him further.
Now that we understand better, we would have loved to have taken him
home to Niagara Falls with us, and replanted him. We'll know next time!
I can't figure out how to record the find on Atlasquest. Can anyone
help? Thanks!

I tried a "Basic Search" on AQ
http://www.atlasquest.com/lboxes/basicsearch/
for the title "teddy bear" and got 10 hits
http://www.atlasquest.com/lboxes/results.html?gTypeId=8;gName=teddy+bear
I also tried just the word "teddy" and found 22 hitchhikers
http://www.atlasquest.com/lboxes/results.html?gTypeId=8;gName=teddy

I hope you find him. If he's not on the list and the owner contacts you, you could try asking the owner if they would mind adding the HH to the AQ database, so you can log your find and watch his travels.

Oops - I just realized that when I did the basic search I forgot to
limit the search to hitchhikers. When I do I get zero hits for "teddy
bear" and 3 hits for "teddy":

Thanks! I searched on teddy bear, but not teddy. A a couple of the 3
looked promising, so I emailed the planters.
