Looked all around. Not on benches inside gate. No stumps either. Looked north of fence, but luck. ??

Today @Windatmyback and I went on a caching expedition in the southwest part of town. We started off looking for an FTF and were lucky enough to grab it. We found a total of 15 caches today including an event (I guess we really didn't find it, but rather attended) and ended our night with a well favorited cache in Parker. We are determined to earn the Cache Carnival souvenirs.
Thanks for taking us to this cool place! TFTC!

I never would’ve noticed this beautiful and historic spot without your geocache. Thank you very much for placing it. We had a wonderful time walking the grounds, with absolutely no one else around other than me and my dog.

Absolutely beautiful spot. Sitting in the shade nearby gives us a break from the tremendous heat of today. Now if the maid would just bring us out a Mojito or a cold beer it would be perfect :-)

Spent way too long looking for this one. Kept relying on the hint to be accurate information which continued to mislead my search. As I was calling it quits and walking off I caught the shine and made the grab.

Found GC5EA1B - Octoberfest: A Haunting on March 13, 2018 using Cachly for iOS.

Some may call me seriously mentally ill. Some may state that I am in a state of mind that prevents social interaction. Some may say I am in a state of mind that prevents normal perception and or behavior. I prefer to say that I tend to do the same thing over and over again, but I expect different results. That being said, I believe we only live one life and I am trying to make the best of it. I thank you, BigLinc16 for placing a fun geocache to fuel my "insanity" or addiction as I call it. I appreciate you bringing me here so that I can try and sign my alias on a piece of paper that you have hidden.

I look forward to finding more of your geocaches. I also look forward to potentially finding geocaches with you one day and sharing stories of our insanity... I mean hobby or addiction? Cheers!

Was doing cache maintenance today and decided it was time to switch this guy to a magnetic nano. Want to make sure this cache stays around a long time and although the current hide has been in place without incident for 3 years, the new container makes it more discreet. Hide was changed from before, but cords don't need updated.
