This is the third in a series.  When the Smoky Hill neighborhoods were developed decades ago it included several small neighborhood parks nestled away among the houses, most not on a city street.  Not sure if this was originally supposed to be one of those.


What it is now is a catch (cache) basin for rainwater control.  This cache is a camo'd tube approx 1/2"X4".   Contains a log and a couple of "treasures"; tweezers recommended.  Street parking adjacent; be careful going down the hill towards the cache.  Field has been recently mowed but I expect there will be times during the summer when the grass and weeds get pretty high.  .

Congratulations to Rohatx for FTF!

In Aurora today getting a bunch of your INVASIONS caches. Loved each of them and had a great morning finding them. Thanks for the smileys and fun time. Your INVASIONS are so much more fun than 2 other hiders ha

Took a break for lunch and now back to caching. Great little hiding spot! Definitely not winter friendly. Sl, thanks!

Apparently I am no longer able to find a cache without being accompanied by the lovable and always cheerful herndonrd. Today was no exception, as I was out and about caching with herndonrd simply because I make him look good. Usually, he finds the caches while I look in all the wrong places. We were on a special mission today as he had already found every cache we searched for, and acted as my geo-sherpa today. I appreciated the assistance as I was aiming to find exactly 28 caches to satisfy the requirements of one of the many challenges I signed eons ago. This one was right where the cache owner (i.e. you) left it.

Hooray!

After we did the whole sign and replace thing here we celebrated our victory by hopping back into the car and driving off to another one. Thanks for the fun hide and for getting me outside on such a beautiful day.

P. S. No animals (humans or otherwise) were harmed in the writing of this log.

GPS was a little bouncy but we made the find. We questioned whether one of the attributes is really applicable at least in its current location. Tftc
