A study in Brownian-Motion: take a marble from the cache to someplace and log it on the marbles web site

Warning: Cache is near high-speed freeway exit traffic. Please approach with caution

I have way too much stuff in my head these days and there are days I think I'm losing my marbles. Well, now I'm sure and you can help me get rid of some of my excess baggage.

Red dots = Locations marbles have been taken to.

This is a very simple drive up cache. If coming from the East on I-80, take the olive drive exit. If coming from the west, you'll have to take the richards blvd exit and turn right down olive drive. Park just in front of the sign that says "no parking beyond this spot" (N38 32.720, W121 43.748). The cache should be trivial to find (think pine tree). The cache location is quite safe but it is near a highway exit so becareful when driving to it and look out for cars exiting the highway.

Once you have found the cache, sign the log book and take a marble. Take it home. Take it to another cache. Take it on a trip. Throw it in the trash somewhere and mark a waypoint. What do I care; it's yours now. Or hand it to me out in the field someday when you run into me; that would be a hoot. However, log back into the web site below and log where you took it (Zip code, geocache ID, or coordinates). Then come back a day later or so and see your pretty dot appear on the world map also available from the following page.

There are many ways to get to and leave this cache... Note the train tracks, the freeway, the pedestrian path, the street...

These marbles are not numbered or made unique in anyway like travel bugs, or the infamous monkeys. I'd have trouble loosing them if I could track them.

Final note: Yamar's favorite color is PURPLE and thus all his marbles are slightly tinted purple

After a good nights sleep and still trying to get home from my Christmas Day Geocaching Roadtrip with my brother, I stopped by to make the quick grab. I left a travel bug that is racing to Alaska, so if you're headed North please help it out. Took a bug home with me.

NOTE: This log is meant to represent my personal caching history, as TeamSpaz no longer exists
