Geocache Description:

Enjoy the day searching for gadgets, then come for some hotdogs, & marshmallows on the campfire and talk about the recent gadget caches that were recently published.


Introduction:

After 47 years of snowy winters, Q and his family moved to Belleview, FL and are enjoying the warm winter days!   I am a gadget cache designer from Illinois and have recently placed 12 gadget caches in the Belleview area and near the Greenway Trails Santos Campground/Sheriffs office.  I am planning for the 12 gadget caches to be published Friday night, January 27th.  These caches are to be found during daylight hours only and will be ready for the FTF'ers as soon as the sun comes up.  So load up the GPS and bring the kids/grand-kids for a fun day of caching in the Belleview area.  If you have never found a gadget cache, then you are in for a treat.  You will need a good sense of smell, 2-AA batteries, a good flashlight and possibly a magnifying glass for your adventure.

The Event:

Where: At the posted coords above (you can also use 5249 as a reference)

When: January 28, 2017

Time: 5:00 - 8:00 p.m.

Bring ur own lawn chair please

CO will provide hotdogs and marshmallows and water and soda so please post how many in your group when you post your "will attend".  Your looking for a private residence / backyard firepit surrounded by geocachers.  You may park in the drive way, ditch or even the front yard.  12-Q's gadget cache will be in the front yard tree for you to find before coming to eat. 

If you have ever attended a MOGA event in the midwest or cached in central Illinois, then you have certainlly found one of my gadgets.  My geocaching name is Major_Boothroyd but everyone just calls me 'Q'... hence the name 1-Q's gadget cache, 2 Q's-Gadget cache etc...  If you like James Bond, Q was the name of the guy who designed gadgets for James Bond, and his actual movie name is Major_Boothroyd (google it)  So, since I happen to design gadgets for you geocachers, I thought it was a fitting name.  Anyway, I am looking forward to meeting you all, and I hope you enjoy the gadgets that I have designed for you.   This is the first batch I am putting out, and have a few more planned for the coming months. 

Happy Caching, and be sure to post how many will attend so I can get enough hotdogs and drinks for everyone.
