This cache has been archived.

Bunjil: I cannot see any information that suggests to me that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement - one or more of the following applies:

             - Cache Owner unable to maintain cache 
             - No response from the cache owner.
             - No cache to find or log to sign.
             - It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
             - Cache has been abandoned by cache owner/cache in disrepair

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email and include GC number in cache name) and, assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

If there are components or remnants of the cache and you haven't already done so, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash.

Should you wish to replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Geocache Description:


Cache 2 of 5

A true story;
One August night a geokid proceeded to sleepwalk, but this was unlike any night before. For this particular night surpassed all other previous sleepwalking efforts. It unfolded like this... At 10:45pm geosister enters the lounge room to tell geomum that geokid was out of bed. Together they find geokid walking in the passage way with a very distinctive “nobody is home” look in the eyes.

Geomum- asks, “Are you ok?”
Geokid- mutters something about zebras
Geosister- asks, “Are you even awake?” and giggles.
Geokid- shoots a greasy look toward Geosister
Geomum- exclaims, “Doh, I forgot! What are we doing?”
Geokid- states matter-of-factly, “Everyone goes zebra hunting on the first of July.”

By this point in time Geomum and Geosister had followed Geokid to the edge of the dining room. Suddenly Geokid halts and puts her hand up to motion the other two to freeze but it’s too late, they accidently bump into her but she doesn’t seem to notice...she crouches low...the others copy her...she points to the table and whispers, “shhh, can you see them?...there they are!” Geokid was in awe of the zebras, meanwhile Geomum and Geosister were exchanging silent giggles. A few seconds go by when suddenly Geokid springs to her feet and runs toward the front door, with surprised looks on their faces the other two are hot on her heals. Geokid whispers, “be careful now, there are lions and tigers” then the threesome slooowly creep through the lounge room. As they arrive at the kitchen Geokid once again puts her hand up to halt proceedings and quickly glances to the left and the right. She tipee toes through the kitchen with her hands up under her chin, the others do likewise. They find themselves at the edge of the opposite side of the dining room. Geokid starts to breath rapidly...her eyes dart all over the dining table end of the room...her breathing is louder...then without warning she runs across the dining room back to the passage way with arms waving in the air yelling, “run for your lives!”...Geomum follows with arms in the air and humor dancing in her eyes shouting, “Ahhhhhhhh”...Geosister suddenly feels freaked out and immediately follows suit and with arms waving in the air lets rip a blood curling scream as she also runs through the dining room. With Geokid in the lead they continue down the passage way to the bedrooms. Geokid jumps in the air, lands on her bed and snuggles under the covers and is instantly asleep! Geosister stares dumbfoundly at geokid...giggles...rushes to her bed...Geomum follows and together they bury their faces in a pillow to muffle uncontrollable laughter.

EVERYONE GOES ZEBRA HUNTING ON THE FIRST OF JULY!
