Unless someone would care to adopt this cache, It's best for all involved that it gets archived. I won't be driving by anytime son. If there are any takes then let me know.
Will have to take this one off line for a while. I was passing through and noticed that cache has definitely gone, I didn't have replacement gear with me but will organise when next in the area.
My apologies for the delay in getting this one back up and running. It is now back and waiting for the holiday caching season.
I'd been here a few times in the past and it's always an interesting location. This time I got to play with a doggie and find a cache.
We left an American Flag beener and our new 2006 sig coin and took a travel bug for a ride before we signed the log and headed for home.
TFTS!!!!

With the work week over and a pleasant January Saturday begging for some cache action, Dreamcatcher, Gif and I headed out with a fistful of cache printouts and a tank full of gas. Down Under was to be our first of five. Approaching the coords was this covered bridge... a likely place to hide a cache. Next to it though was a parked SUV. Nappers? Lovers? (Not likely at one o'clock in the afternoon). Probably cachers! Whatever, we passed by, drove along a bit, turned around then parked fifty yards back or so to give them time to wrap-up their visit. We figured they were taking a few moments to write down some notes before moving on. Been there and done that. Turns out my hunch was right and they were cachers but not ready to pull away. No, they were waiting to re-hide the cache stash but seeing us were holding back not knowing if we were friend, foe or muggles. They had three options... 1) drive off with the stash, 2) stay put until we tired and moved on ourselves or 3) put the stash back and move on themselves hoping their gamble would pay off and that we too were just friendly cachers. Turns out they did Option #3 but with a twist... the real and FAKE hide. Nice move guys! I'd have done the same myself. After they'd moved on, we pulled up. Reminded me of a line at an ATM. But first, some pictures. Was that the same SUV that just passed by? Hmmm... Friendly looking folks inside. No longer needing our GPS, we went to what turned out to be the faked hiding spot. It worked guys! Then snooping around, there it was and the cache was ours. Back to the car, we rooted around the cache container for tradables and found a nifty Geocoin - our first! Not needing to consider further, we dropped in one of our 10 baht coins from Thailand and signed the logged noting that hunterscooby, CachTodd and cachjodi were the folks that had just been there. Sorry then that we hadn't waved them over or stopped by to say Hi! Re-hiding the cache we moved on. So many caches and so little time. Thanks EmZee Wild'rs for your efforts. Cache on!
