I've been looking to place a cache at the front of my property for a while that's at least big enough to hold a few trackables. There aren't many good hiding spots so I had to create one. I think this one should suffice.
You're looking for a peanut butter jar! As long as the object that's hiding this cache is put back in place it should have a relatively low chance of getting muggled. There's a small amount of foot traffic that passes by, but it shouldn't be difficult to place said cache back in it's little nook.
The neighbors are aware of people possibly snooping around the front, but you should NOT need to leave the sidewalk.
Be sure to get as close as possible using the coordinates before trying to find it based strictly off the hint, or else you might be looking in the wrong place. The hint does not mean the most obvious one.
Also, if you see Dave out front, make sure you give him a good cat rub. He loves attention.
