Don't Stand Out In The Rain Traditional Cache

This is a typical urban nano that is intended to be a park and grab located within sight of residential and retail buildings and placed with permission of Merritt Properties.  The nano has only a tiny log and definitely requires you to bring your own pen.  There is a potential for muggles at times and the area is not well lit for night caching.  Parking is available in the lot across the street from ground zero.  

I discovered this site while looking for area gyms.  This cache brings you to a delightful focal point situated at the entrance of this new multipurpose development.  Though I am not an art lover, the warmth and humor of the subjects depicted in this statue caught my eye and I was drawn to take a break from my busy day and just sit musing for a few minutes.  I Googled the artist whose name was etched on the base and discovered this bronze was made right up the road at a Baltimore foundry.  I hope you enjoy the whimsy of the art as much as I did.

I came back one evening at dusk to take readings for waypoint averaging.  The view of the statue against the darkening sunset was even more picturesque, with aircraft blinking overhead in their landing patterns and ribbons of car headlights twinkling as they passed by on MD-100.  A few dog walkers cruised by and there is nothing the shield you from nearby townhouses.   No lampposts or floodlights are around the statue so I suspect flashlight-wielding cachers might arouse the curiosity of residents.   Don't forget to bring a pen.  Extraction tool may be needed to get the log out.  Happy caching!
