Didnt really plan on finding this cache today, but while out for a bike ride i decided to head in a different direction and while riding along the main road i rembered i still had an unfound cache nearby. But didnt have a pen with so i prayed to the caching gods that the cache would provide one and they came through. i never knew this place was here, looks like an ideal plae for a geocaching event. I spent a bit of time exploring the grounds a bit further. Thanks for the adventure dentoz.

Find #1321
Decided to head away from the Central Coast today for a driving adventure. Turned off the highway and headed west. Initially wasn’t sure where to park with the cache being so far off the road but low and behold there was a road to turn down and plenty of parking options.
Great pit stop but we were the only ones enjoying this picnic area today. Great news for me to search in private without the eyes of muggles.
Quick search and soon CIH dislodged a few ants though.
Container in good condition. Log book dry. TFTCSL Thanks for placing dentoz

We detoured here from the highway on our drive sout and there was little chance anyone would disturb us today, the area was totally deserted. There was a number of possible places to search but the clue dropped us on the right one and there was the cache, nicely hidden. Thanks dentoz for a good hide in a pleasant but isolated place.
