Congratulations to Happy & Skippy on the FTF.


Costa Mesa has a wonderful new park area called Tewinkle Park,
at 970 Arlington, Costa Mesa. This beautiful park, with it's showcase
lake and waterfall, also features a huge dog park area. For thesports enthusiats, there are 12 tennis courts, baseball and volleyball courts.
For the dog enthusiats, there are 2 separate areas for small and
large dogs.
Once you get to the cache location, you'll understand the cache name.
It sure surprised me and it'll surprise you to.
BRING A PEN and an optional dog. No room for tading.

Great dog park!, my geodog Bailey had a great time with the other muggle dogs while nephew AJ and I made the find, easy grab from in the park, but as we signed the log realized we had both stepped in some pooch poo, yuck!, but cache found and mess cleaned in quick time!
We used above Coords and they are better then listed, an update is needed, but the hint will get you there.

TFTC!
We will be back here a lot come summer time.

Second stop on our 9 cache trip around east/central Costa Mesa with some non-cacher friends.

We tried this one last week, but the coords were leading us towards the tennis courts and we didn't have the hints or logs with us. This time, with correct coords (the ones posted by Happy & Skippy) and 5 sets of eyes searching, we found it in no time. TNLNSL. TFTC!

Second time is a charm! Coords are off quite a bit off... listed coords took me over by the tennis courts. This time I paid more attention to the clues and found without too much trouble. Accessed cache from the outside of park, but it would be much easier from the inside.... but watch your step if you go in!!! TFTC!
