"Thorin and Company to Burglar Bilbo Baggins greeting!

For your hospitality our sincerest thanks, and for your offer of professional assistance our grateful acceptance. Terms: cash on delivery, up to and not exceeding one fourteenth of total profits (if any); all travelling expenses guaranteed in any event; funeral expenses to be defrayed by us or our representatives, if occasion arises and the matter is not otherwise arranged for.

Thinking it unnecessary to disturb your esteemed repose, we have proceeded in advance to make requisite preparations, and shall await your respected person at the Decker Inn, at 11 a.m. sharp. Trusting that you will be punctual. Please use the clues provided to locate and sign your burglaring contract. Then, and only then, will you be permitted to join us dwarves on our quest to reclaim the Lonenly Mountain from that wicked dragon Smaug.

We have the honour to remain
Yours deeply
Thorin & Co."

"That leaves you just ten minutes. You will have to run," said Gandalf.

"But-" said Bilbo.

"No time for it," said the wizard.

"But-" said Bilbo again.

"No time for that either! Off you go!"

I spent the day in Denver with LilRyRy and CDRSheppo after attending a library program with Nature's Educators and signing the boys up for the summer reading program. This was an easy but really awesome find! Both boys loved exploring the contents. Thanks for the great cache!

We got six in this series today, but that's a great start! Oh, my gosh, we had such a good time finding these caches on this really chilly day. They are all fun, and very well done. Thank you to all the cache owners who put their energy and time into creating these and maintaining them for us!

Loved the theme to this cache, this library fits the bill perfectly. This was my first time visiting this branch, a little hidden gem with Tudor style architecture. Thanks for the fun!

Cleverly set-up and hidden. I enjoyed finding this library cache while visiting friends in Denver before attending the MathFest conference downtown. Thanks for the fun!
