A decon container hidden the Mission Adobe, California Nursery Historical Park. The park is open from 8 a.m. to 30 minutes before dusk, everyday except Tuesdays when it is closed.

To the rear of the park is the Vallejo Adobe,The adobe was built in 1842 by Jose de Jesus Vallejo for his vaqueros (cowboys) on the Rancho Arroyo de la Alameda. It was renovated in 1932 by the California Nursery Company as a tearoom.

The cache coordinate were taken using two GPSr's and were allowed to settle until they matched. Initial contents include a Portrait of our first president for the FTF finder, Steve Martin Buttons #628, #629, #630 and an Antsy the anteater tiny beany.

Congratulations to KennyHannahJacob on collecting the FTF.
