Octopus's Garden

"Octopus's Garden" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles, written and sung by Ringo Starr (credited to his real name Richard Starkey), from their 1969 album Abbey Road. George Harrison, who assisted Starr with the song, commented: "'Octopus's Garden' is Ringo's song. It's only the second song Ringo has ever written, mind you, and it's lovely." He added that the song gets very deep into the listener's consciousness "because it's so peaceful. I suppose Ringo is writing cosmic songs these days without even realising it."[1] It was the last song released by the Beatles featuring Starr on lead vocals.

I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus' garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus' garden with me 

 

At the GZ you will find a small metal box labeled with the GC logo.  Inside you will be immersed into an undersea world of the Octopus's Garden!  Hope you enjoy all the details and fun!  The log is inside the scuba tank, er, I mean bison tube! You will notice a small red button on the side.  I encourage you to press the button!  Be sure to press it again before closing the lid.

 

This fun cache is brought to you by my trusty side kick Button.  We had a blast making this one with all the paint and stickers!  No fish were harmed in the building of this one, but they may have lost a few decorations!

Well I suck! Apparently the cold beats these caches up. Got report of an issue. While I fixed that issue, I broke another! Ugh! Cache is findable but lacks it's coolness factor some. It will be a few more days before I can properly fix this one! Sorry about that! **Update, cache is fully functional again! :)
