"You don't know what you've got 'till it's gone, they paved paradise and put up a parking lot!" Yeah, so many names for this cache I could barely choose! Only a matter of how long the cache could be named made me shorten it down. I just hope the log says that same name. Wouldn't be the first time I changed the cache name after placing it!
For those that have been in the area before, this used to be a small copse of trees along the old road, but it seemed that the nearby hospital needed more spaces and has a shuttle bus to and from. And of course, the lot is pretty full each day, so clearly they knew what they needed. Pity they couldn't build a parking deck like other hospitals instead of mowing down trees.
Simple enough find.
And for those who find it on October 12th, here's a special little extra "parking lot" humor from the end of Stan Freberg's album track "Columbus Discovers America"
Native - You have a Dream?
Columbus - Yes I do.
Native - Would you like to talk about it?
Columbus - I certainly would. My dream is to open the first Italian restaurant in your country. Give you some real food. Starches, Spaghetti, Cholesterol. All the better things. That's called progress, you see?
Native - Mmmmmmmm
Columbus - Now right here'd be a good location for the restaurant. Ocean view and all that. Is there room for a parking lot?
Native - You kidding? Whole country is parking lot!
Columbus - I suppose. Well, I'd like to put a little deposit down on the property here.
Native - Okay
Columbus - I only have a few doubloons on me, so if you'll direct me to the nearest bank I'll get a check cashed.
Native - You out of luck today. Banks closed!
Columbus - Oh? Why?
Native - Columbus Day!
Columbus - Oh yeah. <clears throat> We going out on the joke?
Native - No. We do reprise of song. That help...
Both - But not much.
