On January 26, 1967 R&B artist Eddie Floyd released his debut album "Knock on Wood", featuring a single of the same name.  That song had originally been written for Otis Redding, but the studio was convinced to let Eddie record it.   The song reached #28 on the pop singles chart and has been covered by over 100 artists, including David Bowie, Eric Clapton and Count Basie.  Interestingly, Booker T. Jones and Isaac Hayes were on keyboard for this album.  

Knocking on wood is said to bring good luck.  You may need a bit of luck and diligence to find this cache.  

Parking is available at the nearby Long's Pine Grove Park at Florida Avenue and Uinta.

Decided to grab a couple in the same area before getting lunch. Once I got to GZ knew just where to look and made the quick find. TFTC!

This one is not far from my home base, and I wanted to go for a walk, so headed out early (just at sunrise) to try to beat the heat - managed to get this one (and its nearby cousin) before things got too toasty. TN-LN-SL. Thanks !

Found this one after finding the new hide in the park. Lots of traffic on the trail today, so I had to be sneaky. Signed log. Thanks for another fun hide!
