I have just returned from my annual few-week sojourn visiting my beloved big sister in upstate NY. Some health challenges have plagued her recently, preventing our usual caching marathon. On the day the cake verses were written she had just received encouraging news from her doctor; we rejoiced with one of her favorite treats!
She's celebrating victory
With sticky chocolate cake!
The doctor says recovery
Should follow in the wake
Of surgery and therapy
And all these pills to take.
To honor such a great reward
Should surely call for cake!
Don't bother me right now because
I'm eating chocolate cake.
And I don't care if there's a deadline
I'm supposed to make.
The sweetest time of all is when
We put it in to bake.
I just can't wait, so hurry up
And cook, for goodness sake!
If there were no more in the world,
Then I would be bereft.
The neatest thing is, till it's gone,
There's always one piece left!
Placed with the amused permission of the property manager (and Alaskan Bill is on the board here). You may drive to the end of the parking area/back driveway. Cache is about eye-high (to me) and naturally covered with a few leaves. Beautiful views from here! FTF: None other than - ta-da! lrb&mlb. If Alaskan Bill and I had placed bets on this one we'd have both won!
