Lakeless in Tomball Traditional Cache
TomboyTex: Well, folks, this one is tired and has been moved...by catchers so that it's not even close to its original GZ. The area has become even less "friendly" with over...and undergrowth. Lakeless in Tomball is riding off into the sunset........

The cache is off of a VERY busy street and in a small wooded area between brick structures. There's not a particularly thick or bushy undergrowth BUT I suspect that SOME of it may be poisonous. Beware! The 'skeeters WILL attack! Area is flat and dry right now but (hopefully) that may change.
Park in the strip center. Walk along the road and hang a right into the sort of cleared area (about half way down) before you get to the yellow CHURCH sign. It's not bad. You are looking for the broken gray & orange basketball backboard and goal. Stand at the goal and look toward the strip center. I've moved 2 small dead tree trunks so that they are both POINTING in the direction you need to go.
Now, to the cache! You're lookin' for a small Lock & Lock sandwich-shaped container (camouflaged, of course, with tape and a dab of paint here and there). It's inside a camo colored mesh bag and hanging (suspended by monofilament line) to the left of a large tree and from the limb of a sapling. It's way up there!
Look for the brass cup hook on the sapling at around 4 ft 8 inches. That's the anchor of the line. Extra line (with another loop at its end) is wound around a small stick & anchored in the fork of the sapling by a pine cone.
I've been shamed into putting this little guy back out. :) However, you might wanna hurry as there are now 2 For Sale signs on the fringe of the woods. One is an offer to "Owner Finance" the sale of the lot.
