Coronado, CA is a quaint, yet elegant, island town located across the way from the hustle of downtown San Diego. One can access the island via the impressive Coronado Bridge or via Imperial Beach along “the strand”. However, the best method to see the sites is to take the ferry from San Diego and get some caches along the way. The town itself sits only on 7.9 mi² of land, explaining the name Coronado, which translates to “the crowned one” in Spanish.
Before the high demand of Coronado property a very popular type of residential construction, known as Palmer houses were built in the early 1940’s, these homes present the aesthetic appeal of a casual indoor-outdoor lifestyle. In every way, the design of these homes correspond to way of life in Coronado; simple and quaint. In 1944 they cost $4,000 to build; in July an original Palmer on F Avenue sold for $1.28 million.
Nestled in the alley between four Palmers, two on either block, this cache is in a solo feature that is surrounded by concrete. A bug would love to get in to the same spot and eat a new home except for the creosote that makes it stink.
Update 3/23/17: there has been a number of finders saying there is "no log" or "replaced the log" or "cords off" this is their error. They didn't find the cache. It will be very obvious once found.
Please don't attach log pictures that ruin the cache for the rest.
