The First Date

Thanks to the magic of internet dating, Team Ecylram first met in an Italian restaurant not far from this cache location. She left work hours early and used that time to pick the perfect dress, jewelry, and hairstyle. He put on something that wasn't wrinkled, shaved and combed his hair.

He was already at the restaurant when the future Mrs. arrived. They found each other quickly, were seated in a booth, and started chatting as they purused the menu. They placed their order and started to talk about various matters, both trivial and serious. When they next looked up they were startled to see that three hours had passed and the restaurant wait staff were putting up chairs. Only one other table of diners remained in the now quiet restaurant.

Neither he nor she wanted to end the conversation and leave the restaurant, but good manners said otherwise, and they made their goodbye's in the parking lot with promises of getting together again soon. She went home and told her sister "I think I just met the man I'm going to marry." He went home to an empty house anxious to meet the lady again and wondering how long to wait before calling her. He called the next day and she wished he had called sooner.

A year later the two were engaged and a wedding followed a few months later. But those are stories for other caches and other times. We hope you enjoy this series as much as we enjoyed making it.

All that is required to log this cache is to sign the physical log. If you so desire, please add your story on how you first met your loved one.

This cache is not a skirt lifter. Your sharp and careful analysis of the environment will aid in getting the smilie.

This cache is for those who enjoy a bit of a challenge so please do not leave any hints in your logs.

A clever hide of a nicely-crafted custom container. Favorite point for the unique hide. SL TFTC

I had my hand on it, but it was WithScarletSapphire who realized I had found it. A great custom camo/container - the magnet is a nice touch. TFTC!

Camo needs gluing. It is broken into 2 pieces.

FlatteredCrab touched the camouflage and I declared that “that’s it”! Clever hide. TFTC ?? for custom container.

2nd cache of the evening while on my drive back home after working up in Denver.

I see how this one has so many favorites, that's a first I've seen of a hide style this nature haha. Glad that it didn't stump me as I see it definitely could of. Was able to walk up to this one and have a good guess which made for a quick find.

There were a few cars in the parking lot, even two patrol cars down not too far from where I was standing but no one seemed that interested in what I had going on. Signed the cache as the clouds rolled in and started heading back with 2 now in the bag.

TFTC SL!

Wow wow wow! I've been here many times without luck. Once, I even brought 2 fellow searchers, but we were also foiled. Today I came out here and found it within seconds. I'm giving you a favorite for wasting so many hours of my life :) tftc!

I thought I knew what we were looking for. But we didn’t find it. Part of our agreement about adventures is that we stop when it isn’t fun. It got too frustrating in the hot sun. Oh well.

Wow this is a very nice hide. I've been out finding the best of the best in Southeast Denver. This one ranks up there. Enjoy a favorite point

Have you ever DNF’d a cache and it just haunted you? It bugged me that I didn't find it last time. What was I missing?? Argh! So I read all of the logs; and yes, I mean ALL of the logs to get any piece of information. And then it occurred to me that I didn't look in EVERY place. So today I went back and a there was no one around. This time it didn't take me long at all.


Always satisfying to turn a into a .
