Geocache Description:

This should be a quick in and out cache.

I came across this little park in Etobicoke, called "Douglas Park". I decided I had to put a cache in here as a tribute to my brother Doug who is also a cacher, but not a fanatic as I am!

Watch out for muggles. This seems to be a popular spot for walking the dog.

Replacement cache as of Sept. 13, 2010 is now a micro. It only contains a logbook. You'll have to supply your own pencil or pen.
There's a single parking spot on the cul-de-sac at the south end of the park. If that's taken, there's plenty of parking on Lanor Ave.

** NOTE ** as of July 31, 2015:

This tribute cache is now a memorial to my brother as well. He passed away last week, days after his 59th birthday. His caching name was DougHam. I checked his profile and he didn't make any finds this year. We didn't go caching together very often since he lived in Hamilton, and I live in Toronto. I was going to make plans to do something on his birthday with him, but he wasn't feeling well enough. I began to suspect then that something was wrong. After much urging to see a doctor about chest pains (he hated doctors!), he went to a clinic and they told him it was acid reflux.

Happy caching in Heaven, Doug!
