Cache Info- Please Do Not Take the Show Memoribilia in the Cache

This container is about the size of a paperback novel and is covered in camo tape. It is tucked in a spot very much out of sight (to avoid muggle activity nearby) so please put it back exactly as you find it with native camo from the area placed over it.

Adam West's BATMAN

A series-turned-movie-turned-series again hit, Batman rocketed into my home (batteries to power, turbines to speed) in the form of reruns on UHF early Saturday-morning TV in the early 80s. The only competition in that time slot was The Smurfs ... and let's face it, that was NO competition. Adam West's groovy and wholsomely suave Caped Crusaider paired with Burt Ward's white-bread, hoplessly naieve Boy Wonder swooped in weekly to combate an unending series of villians played by Hollywood's best leading ladies and gentlemen of the time. A-listers who took the step down to halarious and campy B+ character parts for 50 minutes or so just to remind us all of the lighter side of justice/crime fighting. (And for my money, Frank Gorshin is the best Riddler the screen has ever seen.) As a kid, the prefix "Bat" was added onto almost everything in my own inner monologue ... Bat-lunch ... Bat-homework ... Bat-towel ... Bat-mitzvah ... they all ran together joyously. The Tim Burton batmans of the 90's and the Christoper Nolan batman's of the O's and early 10s were pretty cool, for sure ... but they were not a one worthy of Adam West's casual-friday cowel.

What can you say about this campy show that hasn't been said before! Even as corny as it was, I usually had to make sure I watched it! Had to weed thru the bramble to make the grab. Things we do for a find! Thanks for the fun. SL

We headed out to go clean-up new caches in Louisville, Boulder and Commerce city on a nice April day. Years ago we would go to the world of wheels at the old Currigan convention hall. I was lucky enough to get to sit in the batmobile and also meet Adam West to get his autograph Smile. Thanks for placing another fun cache from another favorite TV show. Very nice hide and camo, SL,TNLN,TFTC

This morning was an epic morning. I got to retrieve the Mad Matt's Treasury Map, make plans with fellow puzzlers to follow the map to the cache tomorrow, and do a short run along Coal Creek Trail to find several of the awesome Credo5280 caches. I love Batman and have dressed as him several times for Halloween. When I was approaching the geocache, I scared off a little bunny accidentally. There was lots of wildlife out this morning. That was a very cool CatWoman article in the cache! Thanks for featuring CatWoman as the bonus material in the geocache. We are big cat fans and lost our beloved 18 1/2 year old cat Mica a few months ago. It made me smile to read about the superhero modeled after our feline friends. The Batman sticker and magnet were great too. This one gets a favorite point from me.
