Very clever little hide. Glad I was here on a Saturday, as other days may make for something different

Thanks for the cache....

Found while camping at Rend Lake. TNLN Signed log. Owner maintenance required, log is full. TFTC

Our goal today was to travel over to Rend Lake to do the speakeasy series. Just Us Two and I stopped at a rest area on the way - but pretty much stuck to the plan.

I found this to be a delightful series.....different hides and hide styles. Thanks for all the work put into this series!

This one could use some TLC....the "lid" is broken off.

Thanks for the hide [^]

Headed down to Rend Lake with k'wren to do the "20's Speakeasy GeoTour". We had a great time and enjoyed the variety of hides, as well as the locations. Great job on this fun series!

Looks like someone used a bit of force on this container! It was barely contained in its hiding spot. After siging in, we used a bit of cammo tape to hold it all together. Needs to be checked on soon though.

Thanks, "westcitymayor" for the cache!

Always fun to stop and add a - Thanks for the hunt!

Found it. Love the container. The front cover has been broken though where the screws are.

Not hard to find. As stated by so many cachers, the face plate has broken and the cache is completely exposed. The CO needs to repair or replace. Tftc

On a business trip which afforded a couple extra days for us to pull some crazy wall to wall caching. Up all night and all day with little sleep in between but managed to get five states in one day on this trip. Amazing how sparse some areas were, which made for some long stretches in between caches. Had a goal to pick up at least twenty in each of the states, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia. We did a little better than that but didn't leave much time for power caching. Still this was one of around 150 for the couple of days we had to spend in the area. Loved the August moon, saw an incredible meteor burn up in the early morning hours and the cool fog that seems to creep in every evening. Saw tons of interesting things but my personal favs were the Daniel Boon National Forest and the oil refineries on the Kentucky, West Virginia border. Enjoyed all the caches and just want to say thanks to all the CO's for the effort and maintenance. Lots of caches left on the table but perhaps next time we'll have more than just a couple days to spend. Sorry for the cut and paste nature of the legs but need to maintain my sanity. Thanks again, See you on the trail and cache on!

Thanks for the fun, and many thanks westcitymayor for your effort in publishing and maintaining this cache.

Got to spend a few day's in this part of the country with good friends doing a little caching and a little business mannaged to get 5 states in one day! Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, West Virginia, that was a crazy cache frenzy, got to see alot of amazing sites. gotta come back for more some day Thanks to all the CO's for all the caches and the fun TFT$SL D$r Collecting 's

Out with the Boyz on business signed as "TB" for the boyz. What a blast. Always mix business with pleasure! We had a great time. Hope to see you all on the trail someday. Keep on caching! Thank you for all the finds we got. As for the rest of you, Keep caching and smiling as you go through this all too short life we were given.
