I am placing this micro as a Father's Day gift to my hubby and naming it with a name he would be sure to appreciate! It's a container and it has magnets. There is a log book. Bring a pen, if you want to sign it. The managers of the store know it is there. This can be a high muggle area, so please be sure to replace out of site.
My husband hates micros, really he does. To him, they are just some amorphous intersection of longitude and latitude, with a place to sign your I.D., and put out to log numbers, in a low maintenance container:) True, he applauds the occasional clever one, or the Evil hide that logs a lot of DNFs, but mostly he says, they are just there. The poor stepchild of true caches. He bets explorers and mountain men had bisons and nanos all over the place, just waiting for the invention of the ballpoint pen, so they could declare that, "Yes, I was the FTF this particular point on Earth." He says,” The truest form of a micro has zip, zero, zilch, space for trade items and that is unAmerican, at the very least. Altoids tins and film cannisters can sometimes be tricked into little trades, so are not micros in the purest sense, but are distasteful, none-the-less. In short, if you can't put a Happy Meal toy in it, it ain't a cache. The acronym NRV was coined (or was it cloned?) to mean micro. Does the number 10 to the minus 6th excite you, the 1,000,000 part of, ring your chimes? Wake Up!! The ozone is shrinking, the value of your paycheck is shrinking, the polar caps are shrinking, my waist size is, wait a minute, there are always exceptions to the rule.” While he's catching his breath, let me say that I don't share his view. And how can you value the opinion of a guy whose only goal when dressing, is to make sure all the clothes are his and not some of mine? A lot of micros come with puzzles, and I enjoy the puzzles! You would think that someone like J.B., who is smart enough to do crosswords with a pen, would enjoy a Su do ku or two, but sadly that's not the case. So here's to all the people who do like micros, and a LITTLE bit of stealth.
On the pretense that I wanted the icon, I got J.B. to activate his Evil Micro Geocoin and I am grabbing it and launching it in this cache. There is no FTF prize, because I know J.B. wouldn't like that, and it is his present! Happy Caching!
OK,OK,OK, You can park at the cache to shield yourself from muggles. If it takes you longer than 5 minutes to find the cache and sign the log, give yourself a c- on 1/1 micros and don't even attempt a reydelrobles hide:)
Congratulations TO >---^---:) FOR FTF
