*****Congratulations to kaiwarrior for scorin' FTF on 01/25/09!!*****

We've enjoyed doing these types of caches where you get two fer ones on the smileys
so we decided to do some of our own.

Went looking for this benchmark using the coordinates given on its web page.
All that got us was to the middle of a very busy highway.
Just as we were about to leave we noticed the witness post about 200' away.
We wrote down the designation number
(NN169)
and found out during a search that this was the benchmark we had been seeking.

While we were there we placed a cache so it should be easier for you to find.

Please do not disturb the marker.

Good luck & Happy Caching!

Ahhh, Friday night. A good night for finding... geocaches. After work I drove way up north to the Johnstown/Kelim area to grab some more of the coCreation letterbox series. Along the way I grabbed whatever was in my path - like a hurricane hitting Limon, Colorado. Before beginning I stopped at Duluth to grab some more durable pants. Since I started geocaching I've noticed that normal jeans don't hold up. But I digress. During my journey I saw red tailed hawks, a handful of prairie dogs, a few mice, and only one snake - it was dead :( Just as dusk arrived I looked to the south and saw that I was in over my head. The thunderstorm, which my phone warned me was causing chaos at DIA, had formed a skirmish line to the south of me. I tried driving through it and found myself caught in the 4th hail storm of this season. Luckily, I still haven't repaired the damage :) I ended the night with one geocache in Denver and then Sonic with my geo-buddies, 2LabLovers.
No problems here! Also grabbed the benchmark. Thanks for drawing my attention to it!
TFTC!

I'm grabbing a few caches today north of Denver as my early Christmas present to myself. I enjoyed picking up another easy smiley on the dead end road. Thanks for the cache and keeping it going!
Cheers, keep calm and cache on!
