Geofairy

Apparently, the Tooth Fairy is aware of just how much Eryn likes geocaching. When she checked under her pillow this morning - having had to wait a day because yesterday was spent at the Mall of America waterpark with Grandpa and Grandma - it was like her tooth had grown bigger overnight.


Did the Tooth Fairy forget her keychain? How did she drive the Toothmobile home without her keys? Why the hell did she leave a big plastic tooth?


Ah...it's attached to a geobug. Dogtags that have a unique id on them that you can track from cache to cache across the world using Google Earth. It's a Tooth Fairy geobug! It will need a goal like making it to the Tooth Fairy's house, or the home town of Guy de Chauliac, inventor of the dental pelican. Maybe it will have to begin it's journey in St. Peter next week, as we'll be visiting a dentist and her family.


Ew...it has a cavity. A cavity full of money. That must be how Klund's wife makes her living, working for the money she finds stashed in people's mouths.


Grand total, a geobugged tooth, a silver dollar and a gold dollar.

And here I thought I'd be able to lift the TB # -- nope! Foiled again!

Well does not look like Grandma Ellen or Grandpa John has to take action! It sounds like the tooth fairy has expanded its role. Or has deversified due to the economy.

She's very excited about it - took it to school to show everyone. I think we're going to release it when we go to visit a dentist - seems most appropriate. Anyone have any tooth-related goals that might be appropriate?

Amelie checked out these pictures which lead to a conversation about teeth falling out and ferries who come in the night....a bit too scarey for a 3 yr old to understand!
