When we first move to Pickering some 20 years ago there was a street just down the road form us called Buenavista Dr. that had a few houses on it. It was one of the streets we often walked on to get to the beach, first just my wife and I, then with one daughter then two, then add a dog. Now it's just me and the dog... kids are too old to walk with dad and my wife walks too slowly for me... looking at too many decorating thing on other houses.
Anyways back to the cache, all the houses soon disappeared to make park land except one... all alone on this small street for many years. Well one day many years ago were walking and the people are moving out, fee week later the house is gone... I mean gone, no rubble, no old fence nothing. Some time later road was closed and it's now a path.
Since it's just the dog and I walking we rarely go to the beach and don't use the tail much but when I decided to place the cache in the area I remember this house but there was no trace of it, it is completely over grown so I'm going from memory.
There's you history lesson, now the cache. It is a mid size "Lock & Lock" container that looks like a Canada day accident. It was originally put together to be place nearby as a salute to CANADA day but just before it was actually placed a big tree came down in the wind only feet from the location. It soon got by-passed with day shift and summer activities but when I saw the other cache in the area get archived I moved quickly.
Useable trail except for the last 20-30 feet, tall grass bushwhacking needed with the odd burs mixed in.
Feel free to keep it an "OH CANADA" theme or not.
