It’s not mandatory to listen to The Beatles while searching this series, but you should!

Couldn't find an actual public meter in the area, this will have to do!

Nice secluded spot. 


"Lovely Rita"  by the Beatles performed on the album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, written and sung by Paul McCartney, although as with all McCartney or Lennon-written Beatles' songs, it is credited to Lennon–McCartney.

It is about a female traffic warden and the narrator's affection for her.

I hope this is a good one that slows you down a bit.  Seems my others are too easy!

Congratulations to Mo'Money for his FTF!!!

The camouflage tape on this one made me laugh. Coordinates were right on and man that’s a big dog in that backyard. Although the little one barked though.tftc Log is about 95% full.

Caching until The Lady Bison, who is thrifting with her brother, calls to say it's time to meet for lunch.
Thanks for the cache.

I picked this one up while in the local area. I figured since I wasn’t good enough to be Facebook friends with the CO, I might as well pick up a consolation prize by finding one of his caches. Fortunately, I was able to make the find with considerably less drama than Team GPSaxophone did. Wow, he definitely has more dedication and geo-professionalism than I can muster. In fact, I am now embarrassed to admit that after making the find; I moved to the road and was trying to point out the cache to passing motorists to get them to stop for it. The first 45 minutes, no one really paid me any mind. Then, I noticed my good friend Olga Kurylenko drove by in her sportscar. Apparently, she didn’t have time to stop and blew me a kiss as she drove by. While I’m disappointed she didn’t stop, I’m glad to see that she wasn’t mad at me because I could not attend her New Year’s Party in Paris. Undeterred by Olga’s lack of time, I continued trying to point out the cache. Finally, someone noticed and did an immediate U turn. Whoops, it was a Colorado Springs Police Cruiser and his flashing lights came on as he did his u-turn. I tried to run to my vehicle to get away, but he pulled alongside my Xterra before I could get the engine started. With a very serious face, he asked me why I was distracting motorists and what I was pointing at. Without missing a beat, I replied, “I thought I saw Elvis?” Fortunately, he was a fan of the King. After showing me his best “you ain’t nothing but a hound dog moves;” I wiped my brow while marveling at dodging yet another close call with the law.

Oh yeah, thanks to the CO for placing this cache for everyone to find.
