#37 - #41 An Unfortunate Incident

Well it started out as any other night of treasure hunting. We started while it was still light and headed out to find the closest cache.  I thought we would go check the Northwest part of town as that was the last high concentration.

#37 - GC1ZD2D The Future is Here

Right out in the open, probably best as a night cache.

#38 - GC13GVX "What's Playin' ?"

I must have passed this one 5 times but the Captain noticed it right away. Tricky little hiders, I'll get you!!! While we were looking, an Ex-Cacher approached us and correctly assumed our purpose. We chatted for a bit and invited him to come out with us some other time but he declined. "I tried that, not my thing" he said.

#39 - GC1E5TH Got Milk?

The Captain had already seen this one so he let me find it. I took pictures... don't know where they are. Very nice collection of items.

#40 - GC1ZM30 Yellow Bags

I found this one while Captain was on the phone.

#XX - GC1ZFRK Three Strikes Your Out

We both crawled on our bellies trying to find this one. It got dark while we were here. No find. Sux.

#41 - GC1QZJ6 Boo-Boo & Bean's Car Trade-In Cache

I can only say, you should always follow the directions. The path is so easy to follow, even in the dark and it's beautiful. However, I thought I could wing it and tried taking the South path instead of the North entrance... yeah... don't do that.

Anyway, we headed back to N.Front St to get something to eat, McDonald's, Burger King, Pita Pit... every one was either closed or wouldn't serve bikers. As we were pulling away from the Micky-D's parking lot my de-railer became entangled in spokes, ripped a couple out and twisted itself into an even stranger pretzel than normal. Really Sux!!!! I just dropped $175 in repairs, that I could ill afford, on this damn thing and now I'm left with no bike!!!

We ate at the Pizza Pizza. Probably the worst pizza I've ever had.  In the past, I have burnt cheap, frozen pizza's in the microwave that tasted better than what these people were trying to sell me. Anyway, it was another terrible walk home as I ended up having the Vesuvius of all bowl movements, had to hold it for 2 blocks while I searched for a safe place to go, walking my bike and pausing every 15 steps. I did eventually find a nice shady spot but a couple days later, I broke out in Poison Ivy. The doc put me on teva-prednisone which made me a paranoid blubbering idiot and embarrassed the hell out of me.

An unfortunate incident. I'm now stuck walking to my caches. Enjoy your summer!
