Covered Up Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

VerrueckteFrau: With a very heavy heart I am archiving this cache (I was rather fond of it). The container will be removed by tomorrow at the latest.

I received this notice from Groundspeak today:
[i]I just received a phone call from a homeowner located near your cache GC1A6DH. They've come to find that cachers are parking in their driveway and searching on their property for the cache container and they'd prefer not to have this happen. They requested that the cache be moved as well because home invasions have been prevalent in the area. [/i]

It makes me sad that cachers have shown so little respect for private property in the area. There is plenty of street parking available, and I really did not think it was necessary to point out on the cache page not to search on private property - but I guess it was.

Geocache Description:

Check out the street name and I'm sure you can figure out what kind of structure the cache is located in :)

This place provides an unexpected sight amongst all the McMansions of South Barrington, best appreciated when approaching from the West (Witt Rd).
Though not as old it it may seem (it was built in 1971) it is a quaint little place in the Sunset Ridge Farm subdivision.
We recently started riding through here on our lunchtime bike rides and I have gotten quite fond of this place, so I thought it deserved a cache.

As far as I can tell street parking is legal.
During rush hour there may be some traffic, but otherwise it's very quiet here.
Not sure how much stealth will be required - remember that you are in an upscale neighborhood here.

Getting good GPS readings is a bit tricky here due to the structure (please let me know if the coords need improvement).
This cache involves absolutely no bushwhacking, is a good one for rainy days, and is business attire friendly.

Please watch out for bicycles - especially around noon ;)
