I grew up in this area of Edmonton before a series of moves
including Wabamum and Stony Plain before moving back for a second
time in the old house. After finishing University (University of
Alberta, B.Ed. Class of 1998) I moved to Ft. Resolution, NT and a
few other places before settling in Regina, SK. Don't laugh, I was
one of the few to be moving from Alberta to Saskatchewan before it
was cool to do so.
The posted co-ordinates are bogus. They belong to an old corner
store that my Dad took me to frequently. The store was owned by a
guy named Earl who would sometimes let me have a free Revel –
that was what I always got there. About a year after moving away
the first time, Earl was killed by thieves robbing his store. It
was the first time I knew someone who had died. It's scary how, in
seconds, life can change so dramatically.
Over time that store became another corner store, a hair salon
with a huge limo in front of it, and a real estate office. Looks
like it's having a second chance as a hair salon.
In order to find this cache, you will have have to get the
information from the clue in my first ever cache
(GC1RH4R) “When the Student is Ready...”. I placed
it on a laminated piece of paper inside the cache itself. Please do
not share the Regina information with other Edmonton geocachers
unless you are a part of a team looking for this cache.
You will be looking for a soup thermos, suitable for geocoins
and small Travelbugs.
I have family in Edmonton who are willing to maintain the cache
as needed. I will let them know when maintenance is requested,
please make the appropriate log entries when needed.
This cache contains a laminated piece paper that contains a clue
for another cache in Regina
GC1VX7A (From Edmonton With Love). You may share this clue with
the same cacher in Regina that helped you find this cache.
Bring your own pen(cil), and be prepared to help a fellow or gal
from Regina out.
A Regina cacher may claim this as a find if
- They provide the clue to an Edmonton Cacher
- The Edmonton cacher signs the Regina cacher into the physical
log
- The Regina cacher does NOT provide the clue to any other
cacher
