thescheib and I met Alexander in a geocache called the Cliffs of Insanity. Pretty insane place to leave a wee little superfighter, to be sure! This cache was under a rock in the edge of a cliff that went WAY down to the Yuba River... so if he fell out (or climbed out), he might fall down the granite and into the water and be carried away in the icy snowmelt all the way back down to the Sacramento River. But! We saved him! He was damp inside his cache hiding spot, and his information tag was all blurry. (Did you know that the black ink on his tag dissolved into swirls of green, purple, pink, and blue? Pretty cool...) We will make him a new tag before we send him on his way elsewhere. While he's waiting, he'll hang out at our house in Truckee, CA, up in the Sierras. It is November and we already have a bit of snow in our back yard. We'll be sure to find a cool place to leave him - or another interesting cacher to travel with.
