Hello! My name is Followe and I am a Garden Gnome. Garden Gnomes are masters of nature and love to travel. I have left my hometown on a quest to travel the world in order to spread my good cheer and positive energy. The method of my travel is to have a kind and adventurous person temporarily take me into their custody during their own travels. Their task is to photograph me in a special place (or two), and then pass me on to another traveler, either by hand or by mail. They then e-mail my pictures to this web site so that you may share with the world my travels of the past, and be able to follow along on my future travels. It is important that I only be passed along to trusted and kindred folks, and that they don’t keep me too long so that I may travel quickly and travel far.

May, 2007

The beginning of my journey started in Woodbridge, New Jersey. My friend Floyd purchased me from a local Garden Center with the idea of having me travel as far as possible while following my travels via the Internet. The first leg of my journey would take me to the Catskill Mountains in Woodbourne, New York, aboard Floyd's Goldwing motorcycle to attend a 4 day gathering with fellow bikers from around the United States and Canada in the beginning of June. I will be auctioned off to the highest bidder, the proceeds of which will be donated to charity. The winning bidder will then take me on the next leg of my journey... to where, I do not know. So, stay tuned to find out whom I meet and where I wind up in my travels. I wonder if I'll ever make it back to Floyd? In any case... I'm bound to have a great time. Here we gooooooooooooo!!!!!!

BULLETIN! - A sad story, but back in October of 2007, the Gnome had been abducted (stolen) and is being held for ransom against his will. This is terrible, and the poor soul who stole him shall be cursed with misfortune and mental anguish until the Gnome is released in the eyes of his peers. Read all about it HERE.

The Gnome's mission of cheer and good will is being continued by his brother, who after months of searching for his lost brother in despair, has finally set out to continue on his quest. His adventures shall be documented here as well, and here he is setting out.

Aloha,
Stumbled on your gnome site. Fun angle!
