Geocache Description:


This Mystery Cache is a bonus cache to the epynomous Adventure Lab cache. It is not strictly necessary to complete the Adventure Lab cache to locate this one, but doing so certainly points you in the right direction. This description does not contain any information that will lead you to the cache location, beyond what you should be able to guess anyway. How's that for talking in circles?

When I was little my dad used to take me for walks beyond our neighbourhood after dinner, carrying me in his arms. I don't have any memories from that time at all, but to hear it from my mother, my father would walk with me for miles around our home, talking to me, telling me stories.

Later, as a rebellious teenager, I often quarrelled with my father. We were so similar, and I think that is why we fought, because we saw in each other the things that annoyed us most about ourselves. After our fights I would feel bad. My father never took my siblings out walking the way he did for me.

I wonder whether, during our walks, we ever came here. It's possible that we did. It's not so far away. I wonder whether those walks we went on are why I enjoy walking so much today, and why I always feel the urge to tell stories while I'm walking too.
