Geocache Description:

Not long ago as I sat munching on some BBQ, I was in a deep blue funk mourning the loss of my favorite ice cream store in this complex.  I thought nothing would take away the pain of deprivation until I realized I could spread joy with smileys.    So what you have here is my very first cache! This micro container is meant to be somewhat visible to keen-eyed cachers so don't try to 'improve' the hide by making it harder to see. After all, beginners need smileys too!

 


Park and make a quick find (for experienced seekers). The original key hide box has been replaced by something smaller. You will need a tool or tweezers to extract the container from its hiding place. A little care should be taken to avoid muggles heading in to exercise good health habits (probably why the ice cream store died).  I bumped the difficulty up as muggles make it difficult to grab at certain times of the day. The building and parked cars create some bounce but the hiding places are limited and you will not have to frisk the shrubs.  Contains only a log, so bring a pen with your extraction tool. PLEASE RESEAL ZIPLOC to keep log from becoming waterlogged.
