Spazzed Out! Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Krypton: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Thanks for your cooperation!

Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the coordinates listed above, but if you drive to them and holler out the window, Joe might come out and ride around with you to help you solve this puzzle...

"Hey Walruz, thanks for picking me up! It's really great that you're going to help me fix my caches. Let's get going"

"I fixed a bunch of them yesterday. I just need to take care of a few more."
"Get on 880 and head North. Get off on Decoto."
"Take the first right. Good, now take another right."
"Go down aways and stop. Wait here, I'll only be gone a minute."
"I decided to just fix them. I thought about maybe going out and moving them all so everybody could come out and log them all over again - I think that would be neat - but it's just too much work."

"OK, that's done. Turn around and get back on the freeway."
"Get off on Alvarado and go North."
"Huh. All the streets here are named after lakes."
"Yeah, it's in a park here."
"Hey, Lake Chabot! - We've gone too far. Turn around, it's right here. What're you doin, trying to make me walk or something?"
"I don't know why this one caused people so many problems. There's a big arrow on the ground showing them where to go and everything."

"The next one's in Niles. Go down Alvarado-Niles Boulevard."
"Turn right here. Follow this all the way to the end and turn left. Go down a bit - It's in this little park."
"Yeah, You can get to alameda creek here and a bigger park nearby that I have one of my CITO caches in."

"Get back out on the main road and head for Decoto."
"Ok, turn on Paseo Padre. Keep going, keep going... oh heck, let's just skip this one."

"Whatever. Turn right here and go over the freeway."
"Yeah, we were just here but we were on the other side of Alvarado."
"This one is kinda funky. Give me a few minutes."

"That was easy. Now, back out to Alvalado and South over the Freeway."
"Keep going down to Decoto."
"Oh, geez, we just here awhile ago. These pages are all out of order, I'm really sorry."
"Just drive up this street - Gustavo - I think I can get to it from here."

"Great. The next one is nearby - go over Decoto - turn right, go down, keep going, turn left - it's in this park here."
"I got it. Do you know I hid all these caches in a day and a half? It was a blast, driving around, finding a spot, hiding a cache and then moving on. That was so cool!"

"Anyway. Now go back out to Decoto and get on the freeway headed South. The next one is down aways."
"Get off on Mowry. Turn left over the freeway. Don't turn at this light, go up to the next light and turn right."
"That's it, we just need to go down a block or so. I love all the palm trees in this neighborhood."

"Oh crap, these are all screwed up. I'm real sorry. Go back to the freeway and head North now."
"Get off on Fremont and turn right. It's in this big park right here on Paseo Padre. Sometimes it's kinda hard to do when there's a game going on."

"Ok, now we get back on the freeway again. This time all the way down to Stevenson."
"Go over the freeway and take your very first right. Follow this down and around. Park here."
"It's back there, almost next to the freeway - I'll be right back."
"I don't get it - people are always complaining about this one. Heck, I mention the wall in the hint!"

"Umm, I have bad news. We need to do one more up North. Get back on the freeway."
"Get off on Alvarado again. Yeah, I know, these are the lake streets. All I have to visit is the one here we haven't done yet."

"Lemme tell you, it's a lot easier when you drive and I can just concentrate on fixing the caches. Thanks a whole bunch. Now people can go out and find them all!"
