Walked over from the nearby Earthcache. Cache'n'Carey went one way and I went the other. Made the find and signed the log. I did see some large paw prints very near the cache! Cool...

Found with a.k.a. Diana. She went about it the right way, as usual I had to play games and have more fun climbing over things. Of course, she made the find. We did see the cat tracks. TFTC!

We'd just been to our "DOG TRAINing" http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=bfbaa10d-f051-4ed0-980b-e9816f2b5aff classes before atempting this one. We were excited about the possiblities of see cat tracks... The wind was making very spooky sounds on the fence. Foxhound said it sounded like wild dogs! then it sounded a bit like what she called geese.

unless the "Cat" is REALLY - REALLY BIG, yellow and Metallic... we saw no tracks. Frown - would have liked to see the other kind.

Foxhound thinks the location is REALLY COOL - perhaps even "wicked cool". anyway we stopped and looked and saw - no guards of any sort - noticed something - I say Foxhound - what's THAT? - she says "THE CACHE" and smiles and goes back to the "cool stuff". I sign and we replace - exactly as we found it and she spies some old metal - the silver boxes next to the "old Metal" are bee hives...

we head back to the Geo300Limited by way of the cache we came from and found half of the BoydChicks. She said she was going for this one next but, silly me - I'd forgotten the NAME of this one - and she was showing different coords?

Thanks for the fun!

Tried to ride my cow out to the cache, but couldn't make it. Grabbed my wheelchair and tried to roll out there, but couldn't make it. CHECK THE ATTRIBUTES!!!!!

Ended up walking out there and the kids had a blast playing on the bridge. That thing is not too sturdy, that's why the cow wouldn't cross it......

SL. Thanks for the entertainment.

Got some help on this one. When scouting the location last week, I touched (and looked in/around/under) all sorts of things. Wouldn't ya know it? I practically had my hand on it. Today, I *really* had the cache in hand. BTW, you can see the old runway lights from this spot. Cool. TFTC!
