Celebrating 100 Traditional Cache

Now that we have found 100 caches, we wanted to add one of our own. ***This cache has been slightly moved from the original location. I'm afraid it will get tossed again if someone is using that location regularly. The new location is closer to actual posted coordinates so disregard logs prior to 6/28/16 with different hints or coords. IT IS NOT LOCATED IN THE TOWNHOME GREENERY. parking can be very limited during business hours.***

As summer started we, Blue.Ninja, a busy, sometimes adventure-seeking family with wee ones, sought the milestone 100th find. We have been caching six months and we wanted this find to be grand, adventurous, and a geocaching memory of a lifetime. After realizing we would probably have to wait months longer to live up to our own standard of what that would be, we  headed out on Father's Day weekend with high hopes and a picnic lunch. After several DNFs and lots of shoulder carrying, we found the coveted 100th find. Although it wasn't fancy, it was our accomplishment, and we did our happy dance in the woods among the bugs and the poison oak. We had done it! The 100th find was not just special in itself, it is the goal we had set before we felt we would have the experience and geocache-prowess to create and place our own cache. Again, we brainstormed what our amazing and creative cache location would be -- a feat for even the most experienced cacher to walk away from in amazement. And then we realized that that would take us years. We can't risk our kids being aloof, "this-is-not-cool-anymore" teenagers who refuse to help us in this landmark family event. So, in honor of all the geocachers who appreciate that an amazing adventure and a realistic grab-and-go are equally important geocaching experiences, this one is for you.

(Actual cache description starts here-thanks for your patience.) This cache has been designed with two things in mind: one, proximity to places we like to frequent; and two, a quick grab and go so that we can still claim to maintain a geocaching lifestyle even when we can't get far from the burbs. We love bubble tea and designer dessert places with huge lines to make us feel like we are waiting for the the most amazing sweet treat ever - our favorite place to find a cache.

 ***This is small-sized camo-taped pill bottle that holds a log and some trade items. It can be a quick park and grab at the right time, but lots of muggles and LIMITED PARKING around during business hours. ***
