Geocache Description:

A small cache by the side of a small river, oh how they come and go...

Betty came by on her way
Said she had a word to say
About things today
And fallen leaves.

Said she hadn't heard the news
Hadn't had the time to choose
A way to lose
But she believes.

Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
About the plan
For lilac time.

If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
And all night shows
In summertime.

Betty said she prayed today
For the sky to blow away
Or maybe stay
She wasn't sure.

For when she thought of summer rain
Calling for her mind again
She lost the pain
And stayed for more.

Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
About the ban
On feeling free.

If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
I don't suppose
It's meant for me.

Oh, how they come and go
Oh, how they come and go.

This cache has been moved in order to better protect it from water runoff into the little stream. It is closer to the tennis courts and possibly more likely to be muggled, so PLEASE REPLACE CAREFULLY. I placed this small cache hoping some folks might be brought to this quiet part of the park. Make sure that you sit and enjoy the peace and quiet of the park. For the suitable soundtrack, please listen to "River Man" by Nick Drake here, or when you get home (available on youtube, of course, or Itunes if you want to support the estate of the artist.)

When this cache was placed it had a geocache tattoo, a set of stickers, a "2012" pendant, suitable to hang on a chain around your neck or wrist, and of course a log and pen. 

PLEASE be thoughtful and conceal carefully before moving on.
