Geocache Description:


This puzzle cache has an unusual requirement in order to sign the paper log.

The cords are the physical location of the cache. But the container is locked. The keys to the lock are travel bugs that should be located in the Fort Wayne or Leo general area.

I will be slowly releasing 10 travel bug keys into the wild and I will link them here. After you sign the log book, please return the key to a cache within 24 hours.

 

Please do not hold onto the key for more than 24 hours.

Please keep the key around Fort Wayne and surrounding areas. Ideally within a 45-minute drive.

The travel bug / key should be inside a baggie containing a notecard. If the notecard is missing, please let me know.

This is on the side of my house by the water meter. I give you permission to park in front of my house and to walk through the yard. My cats like attention so they may run up begging to be pet. Please do not go for this one between the hours of 10pm and 8am.

I run an eBay store, so I'll try to keep the cache stocked with nice swag/tech, don't worry about trading the same value. Feel free to leave TB's, I would be thrilled to push them on their way if their goal required it to be moved quickly.

My roommate is a geocacher and is welcoming of this cache so no need to worry about awkward conversations with us.
