Geocache Description:

The cache is visible and easy to find using only your eyes. Please take care to not disturb anything around the cache. If you do not see it first, keep looking, eyes only. It is a thin tube 'bout 6". Only a bit is visible. Please bring your own pen

This cache is located next to the lot where "The Bear Republic" used to be. The Bear Republic was a place that served adult beverages to mostly fishermen and "motorcycle riders". It has been since torn down.
We would stop by every now and then to relieve our thirst on the trip from Santa Cruz to Monterey or if we we happened by the fish market just down the street. The place was a bit rough and on our first visit were advised not to pet the old dog that was lounging on a worn couch "'cus we think he rolled in somethin' dead"
One year we went to Malones (also since torn down)for Valentines dinner with a unsuspecting couple who were friends of ours. We were all dressed up and had enjoyed a very nice dinner when we got the idea to take these folks for an after dinner drink at a "very nice" place nearby. Long story short, they never let us choose their drinking establishments again. It is to those memories this cache was placed.
