(original description from abngreg)
When I was in high school, I spent some time hanging out in
playgrounds, mostly on the swings. Even now as an adult I love to
find a great swing. In honor of my love of the SF playgrounds, we
are placing a series of nano caches around the city. Children's
Playground seemed like the appropriate place to start.
The history of the playground is pretty incredible, even if the
playground itself has changed. The playground orinigally opened in
1888 and is thought to be the first public playground in the United
States. The Carrousel right next door opened at the same time as
the playground. Since the playground has been re-invented into
state of the art play-adventure. Although, I miss the old
apparatus, I can appreciate that times must move on, and things
that were once safe for children no longer qualify. Too bad most of
the stuff is too small for adults now, except the did leave leave
in the hillside slides.
Please remember, since these caches are placed in playgrounds,
there will be heavy muggle activity, we recommend attempting these
at night to avoid detection. Enjoy.
