Marty's Big Brother Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Saturnmansc1: I really hate to see this one go, but Squeaker has run away. Also, the area has kind of gone trashy too. Sucks to see it go, though.

Geocache Description:

Log only and, as always, bring your own weapon of choice of writers and authors. Be stealthy as you search for it. Handle the container with care and remember to hide it as you found it. Parking available on the street north of the cache.

Use extreme stealth as this area is frequented by muggles.

Marty was the name of an old driving buddy of mine. We went everywhere together. Work, school, home, anywhere I could drive, he rode along. He was an awesome tag-along. Never complained about how fast or slow I was driving. Didn't gripe when I would do a little braille driving when I was tired after a long night shift. He was a good little rat.

Oh, hehehe... I guess I should explain. Marty was a little rubber toy rat that a dear friend gave to me in her druken stupor. She knew she could always count on me as a designated driver (I don't drink) and to come pick her up after a late college party.

While trying to get her from the party to my car, she grabbed a decoration from a coffee table in the center of the room. She pulled my hand out and placed in my hand this little, black rubber rat. "You need a friend when you drive places! He's your driving buddy! His name is Marty!"

And that is how I acquired Marty the rat. He sat on the dashboard of my Saturn SC1 (hence the geocaching name) and would often roll back and forth as I made corners, acelerated quickly or when I stopped suddenly. He was quite often a conversation piece when I had people ride with me. Hehehe...good ol' Marty.

I lost Marty in 2005 when my car was stolen. The theives took the car for a ride, ditched it and took anything not nailed down, including poor Marty.

I have since found a new Marty and his girlfriend, Martha. I also had found Marty's big brother too. I call him Squeaker. Squeaker is hanging onto the cache. You may need to convince him to "pass" it to you. Give Squeaker a squeeze and tell him Marty sent you.
