Geocache Description:

This is larger than a peanut butter jar, and covered with camoflauge tape. It can accommodate coins and travel bugs. Thanks to cacher "lazlow find it" for the cache container that he gave to me at the 2007 Poker Run in Plainfield! Cache location is no big deal, sorry for the lack of ambience. Look at it as a CITO opportunity. Jeni deserves better than this...but it will have to do. Cache contains a FTF Geocoin, a toy, one dollar, some firemen, a frog, you get the idea.

Not too long ago, Jay Kay El Em dedicated a puzzle cache to Sparkeeeee/Team A.C.E. Since I was FTF on it (no self control), I must now place a cache.

Will Jeni be FTF on this? Or will another south side cacher get there and take FTF honors? If you take the honors, you are then obligated to place a cache. Is it worth it? (ummm, you just read about what I did!)


*****beginning of rules******

This is a series started by rsfish1. Here is the premise:

"We all know that there are just those cachers that always seem to be the lead dog and get to that cache just ahead of you. This series is dedicated to those cachers that are dedicated to keeping the rest of us from getting that coveted FTF. This series just has a few simple rules. (edited on December 19, 2007)

1. If a cache is placed with your name, then it would be nice if you placed a cache with someone else’s name. This way someone else gets the FTF on a cache other than you!

2. If you beat someone else to the FTF on a cache with their name, then it would be nice if both of you would place a cache in someone else’s name.

3. Please keep the title the same for all new caches released. Just change the cachers name when you place the new cache.

4. Please have fun with this. We are all out here to enjoy the outdoors and meet new people. But a little good natured ribbing and maybe a small story about this person is always enjoyed."

*******end of the rules*******

My first encounter with Jenischmeni was while we were camping at the 2007 Fall Picnic. The worst camping trip EVER. Well, maybe not ever, but it was the first time I had camped in over 10 years, I had all new supplies that I had purchased for the excursion (the total price for our cheap camping weekend knocked my socks off!) It rained, it poured, the tent leaked, the air mattress lost air, you name it. Oh, and I ended up with a cold or the flu as a result. Do you understand? Meanwhile, at the campsite across from us, jenischmeni was having the time of her life. Nevermind she was being called "bear bait" by her companions due to a hairspray application, she just had a blast. It's all in how you look at it. I went camping with her in Illinois for the Moonshine event, and the weather was great and that camping trip was wonderful...for everyone!

I only met jenischmeni and her husband joey schmoey just recently (in September 2007) and I've had a lot of fun with her since then. Her logs are entertaining, and talking with her is a blast. Deermark interrupted one of her stories last weekend at Trailmix 10 with a question: "Is this a three page log?" Burn!

Thanks for all the fun, jenischmeni!

OK, if you take the FTF coin out of the cache container, you MUST place a new cache on the south side of Indy, preferrably in the Center Grove area, right Jenischmeni?
