We finally set our hitchhiker free, and dropped him off at Travellers on Holiday, a cache that collects travel bugs willing to travel internationally. I sure hope they accept hitchikers as well. Anyway, it is not your typical cache as you can tell by looking at the photo.
Let's hope the hitchhiker can make its way out of the Netherlands. Umm, let's also hope the kind people behind this cache do not take him straight to his designated destination, that would not be fun. Making it to the east side of the USA would be great, but any country other than the Netherlands would be great just as well!
I bumped into the UserLinux logo candidates, and was tempted to give it my own try. I have made two versions of a logo, both are shown below. The letters 'U' and 'L' form the abstract face of a user.
