We are placing this cache for TWO special reasons:

ONE, this open space area is where gampa&gamma found their first cache eight years ago (2009).  The Witz-ing Hour (Re-Haunted) GCQV9G was our very first find, and eventually where we launched our first travel bug one year later.  This WitzAbout cache had to be archived in January 2016 as it and it’s hidey-hole went missing when the City of Colorado Springs began work on the new John Venezia Community Park.  Now that the park is complete and open, we wanted to place another cache in our family series.

TWO, Henley is our youngest grandson who loves to go geocaching.  He has been caching since he was an infant and has cached in 16 countries, on three continents, and in 19 of the United States.

Because we have enjoyed so many fun caching days with Henley here in Colorado Springs, we wanted to place another cache in his honor here.  This is number four in a series of caches.  One, three and five in the series are in Arizona, placed by his parents.  Number two in the series is nearby in Briargate.  Be watching………some day there may be a cache named,  “I’m Henley the Eighth, I Am” in some far away location!

We stopped by to check on this cache. It’s in place and ready to be found.

Nicely done. I was on the wrong track looking at possibilities, then a bit of blind luck made the find possible. Thanks for the fun find.

No joy for me today. The CO told me to stop by since I was down the road at another one of theirs. It was the end of the cache run for me and I was a little pooped and not thinking clearly. I searched the usual suspects, reflecting on some clever hides I’ve seen in recent months but to no avail. Hmm. I will come back to this one with fresh vigor and a clear head. It’s there. I know it is. You won’t elude me for long!

CO has confirmed the container is still in its hidey-hole.

Found the sprinkle and looked around the area. Even in the fence and it was not there. Hopefully I missed it and it's not gone.

Stopped just short of disassembling the fence. No love.

Finally found this cache after several tries with Team GPSaxophone and KickBassMama.
Very clever hide. I'm surprised it took that long to find
