#34 to #36 - The Great Cache Robbery (Epilogue)

Our prior outing "The Great Cache Robbery" looked great on paper, but there were a few unforeseen issues, time constraints mostly.  Because we had missed a few caches, I took a leisurely jaunt today to pick some of them up.

 #34 - GC27Z4F Loyalist's Backyard
Very easy find, I loved the walk around and the location is particularly beautiful. The rain was light and sparse, but the breeze was silky and lightly humid. On a dryer day, I could sit here for hours either reading or meditating. I took a green, braided key chain and left the pumpkin stamp found at Drop Off.

#XX - GC14ET4 Royal Canadian Air Cadet Cache #1
Checking the logs I did notice the plants that most were referring to as poison ivy, but I did not get any reaction from it. Neither did I find the cache. Checking both sides of the road and along the brush and trees of the East side and North of the stream, I found nothing but a couple of places a small cache might be hidden. I managed to convince the jogging parties that I was just reminiscing.

#35 - GC140WM Morris Needs Another
A clever hide, I had no idea of these paths, mostly considering that I've never had reason to see this part of town before. I took a large red marble & left behind a galaxy coin, I think I got it at Chuck E Cheese. The paths were easy to follow and the area  is pleasant to visit. I would also strongly consider bringing a garbage bag for effective CITO.

#36 - GC1XKHP Micro Morris
This park is particularly well groomed and great for children to play in. The cache is cleverly hidden where groomers are not likely to disturb it.

I'm glad that I had the opportunity to pick up these finds. Though I missed out on the RCAC find, I'm sure it will show up again. The Micro Cache #1 doesn't seem to show on my Navigator, so I'll have to find a way to get it into the system or manually enter it into my device. Either way, it can't stay hidden from me for very long.!!!

Safe Caching
