This one is pretty easy and in a new park (as of 2/13/03). Half of the way is paved. The rest is in the woods but you can still see the trail. ***Update*** it seems that the thorns and briars are bad year round (mild winter) poor reception will get you close, but it is not hard to find.
This cache is a gift to my wife for Valentine's Day. Ah, geek love. It is in honor of marriage so please bring a picture of your wedding (3X5 or 4X6) and a good story of how we meet or something interesting about the event. I am a ordained minister and there should be a ring left in the cache for anyone who would like to propose to a geocache sweetheart. I would be happy to perform the wedding for free, or at least be honored to be invited (I will stay for the reception, there will be my wife and I, we'll have the meat dinner, and we would be happy to dance with the bride or groom as the case may be). The ring is a mood ring, every couple should wear one as a heads up. We will also be kicking things off with a TB (Happy Couple).
Contents:
1) Photo album
2) Journal
3) Ring, to be used as engagement on the spot. (Look Honey, I found the cache, I wonder whatever could be inside. Hey, it is a ring. Will you marry me?) -- or something like that
4) Travel Bug -- Happy Couple
Please leave:
1) photos
2) advice
3) memories
*** Upgraded the challenge level, I set this cache in winter and now come summer it is a bit over grown. Stay on the paved trail until you see the rock erosion control, don't cross the wind breaker until last 200 ft, don't cross the creek until 70 ft and the best place to cross is where the three trees crossed. ***
