The Macho Homemaker Cache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

RedhedMary: [red]Yep, new cache in the area in place and will be submitted to reviewers tonight. This was a fun one, at least in its original container, and I'll miss it. Doesn't mean I like my geo-friend Macho Homemaker any less, just could not resist the opportunity I had and this was the best place for it.

Geocache Description:

A cache to honor my good geo-friend, The Macho Homemaker. Something both "macho" and "homemaker" is what you used to be seeking! Now just a regular sized container as the toaster rusted out.

December 2012 - the original container was no longer suitable as a geocache (too rusty, falling apart - it was an old toaster) so it was replaced with a conventional sized regular container.

Original description:
I've been wanting to hide a Macho Homemaker cache ever since he and Fish had hidden "How Tall is Mary?" a few years back. Fast forward to this summer. I was out in the woods after the Newaygo event and came across something. After thinking a few minutes, I decided it was the perfect cache container for a homemaker and I brought it home. It rode around in the back of my cachemobile for quite a while.

Finally, I needed the space for something else so took it out and put it in the corner of the garage. Muggle Hubby found it a couple of weeks later and threw it out. Thankfully, I happened to see it as I was adding to the garbage container and hauled it back out. It then (after explaining my intentions to Muggle Hubby) resided beside the garage until I finally got around to hiding it today. I had to add something macho to it to complete the effect, and put a smaller container with the log within that "macho" item. No writing instrument included, please bring your own.

Oh, and the first to find will find a traveler VERY appropriate to the cache container! Please pass it along.

This cache is located on private property with permission of the owner and her muggle hubby. Parking alongside the road near the cache area. No need to go south of the driveway.

Please refrain from hunting this one in the dark as it is a rural yet residential area.

THE SEARCH AREA IS --EAST-- OF THE NORTH/SOUTH ROAD (ON THE SAME SIDE AS THE STOP SIGN) AND ON THE --SOUTH-- OF THE EAST/WEST ROAD. Neighbors have told me that cachers were looking on their property for Obvious? (a cache previously located nearby for those of you that haven't been caching all that long)and they weren't too happy about it. If your GPSr is leading you anywhere but the above-described general area, better check that you have the right coords.
