Short stroll down a forgotten road.
Just needed any reason to come out here and hide a cache. This place has always held some curiosity for me when I drive past, so today I came down and checked it out. The fence all around the place didn't seem to have any signs of ownership, but around the far side, I spotted a "Property of City of Durham" lying on the ground. It has all the appearances of an old waste water treatment facility -- long since out of service.

You should have no trouble finding the cache, which is being assisted in staying in place with a strong magnet. I really wanted to place it on one of those structures just beyond the fence, but that would be improper. So stay on the outside of the fence. Also, please re-hide better than you found it so that local kids will not vandalize it. There were some apparent indications of kids using this area -- and they *were* tresspassing, so it's obvious to me that they will not respect personal property.

Enjoy the cache! Oh, yeah, bring your own drinking water, cause there's nothing here worth drinking!

Out caching in the area with a group that had completed Pandora's Box earlier in the day. This was a nice walk down an old forgotten road. It wasn't until I got home and realized that this was find number 700!! Thanks for the cool cache for such a special milestone!

Eureka! A very interesting location. I wonder why they just left it like that? Would it not make more sense to properly shut it down and dismantle it? Maybe they are going to use it again in the future....I doubt it.
