Geocache Description:


This cache is both a part of my Lost series of geocaches and what I hope will be the first in my Wayward Pines series of geocaches. I am hiding this cache to mark 8-15-18 because on Lost 815 was a significant number, and look at the date, you can see 815 is made either direction.

For my Lost series of geocaches this represents the episode Lockdown, in which Sayid, Charlie, and Ana-Lucia found Henry Gale's hot air balloon crashed in a tree. The hot air balloon had a smiley face on it. You are also looking for a smiley face hidden in the greenery.

For my Wayward Pines series of geocaches, this is what I hope will be the first in the series. On the television show and in the book trilogy by Blake Crouch, the residents of Wayward Pines lived by 7 rules. This cache represents Rule #2 "Be Happy". Coming to the park for the kids to play, for the dogs to go to the park, or just to enjoy a walk, is a good way to be happy.

Though this represents two series, you are looking for a single geocache. It is a small prescription bottle painted green. It has a yellow lid. Cache is attached to a binder clip. The clip is hooked directly to its location You can unclip the binder clip to get the cache. Then please reattach the binder clip. The clips are new and so might be tight.Do not go into any of the fenced areas. You will be near, but do not need to enter any areas that are fenced off.

Don't worry about the plant life, it is NOT poison ivy. (I doubled and triple checked before placing the cache. LOL)

Please bring your own pen/pencil.

If log is full or wet, please let me know and I will replace it.

This location is child and pet friendly. Please keep your dog on a leash. Area may have stickers and biting/stinging insects. It would be a good idea to check for stickers. This is Kansas and we do have snakes, so please watch your step.
