Description

Part of the 2011-2012 Leap Frog Race

Dennis (Hopper) is a small green guy, who will squeak if squeezed. While I have no idea if the real Dennis Hopper as involved in any movies involving frogs it seemed appropriate (OK it was Anna's idea).

This frog was part of a Geocaching Australia race running from 1 December 2011 to 31 January 2012.

Now the race is over I'm happy for him to keep moving around, and hopefully keep providing enjoyment for other cachers.

I promised Dennis an interstate trip, and he got it. The only problem was, circumstances (work, muggles, inner-city etc) conspired to mean that I didnt end up finding a place I felt that I could safely leave him.

So he ended up coming home with me again, but I finally released him into the wild again. Sorry I held on to him for so long, I hope he has better luck with his next travelling companion.

Cheers

I was out on a short evening stroll in the chill winter air when I bumped into Dennis. I mentioned to Dennis that I was travelling interstate the next day and invited him to join me, which he did.

Cheers

Poor Dennis didn't like where I left him & squeaked (wailed) constantly as I covered him. He should be happy as there is a Trig a few metres away & the ocean & Moruya River within ear shot.

8th of 12 up in Amaroo and surrounding area. After a DNF on a nearby frog, it was nice to get this one. Cool frog. Just wondering, do you want your frog back now that the race is over? If so, email me and we will discuss. If not, please advise and we will move it on soon. Thanks Richary! Ribbit

We had the finish line for the Canada-Australia Travel Bug race today.
several frogs were in attendance and they were the stars of the show while we all went into a frog signing frenzy. I didn't get time to know each frog but I did make my mark. I making my mark I inadvertently made one frog eligible for the Frog Hospital. Not this one though.

This was one of many frogs (as well as a few gnomes) that came along to boot Zalgariath back to Europe at ZEAMMAFF. Things were really hopping as more and more frogs arrived during the afternoon, by the time the event had finished, over 55 movables had hopped onto the table. Of course, with that many frogs hopping around in one place, something was bound to happen, and one poor gnome was bumped to the ground, requiring a trip to gnome hospital and a serious stay there, but the less said about that the better.
