Cache-tech: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have had no contact with the cache owner since my last note and there has been no notes posted to the cache page in that time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache.
When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link (Mine) across the top and then click on this cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
Cache-tech

Charlotte County Court House Hung in the Court House, the gallows victim returns. The court house in Saint Andrew’s, New Brunswick was one of the last places in Canada to hang convicts. But it seems its last prisoner has come back to show visitors the horrors he had suffered. Among other activities, this forlorn and hostile apparition has been spotted carrying a small piece of robe, waiting for and taunting the people with whom he comes in contact.

The Charlotte County Gaol A farmhand proclaims his innocence long after he has been executed at The Charlotte County Gaol, in St. Andrew’s by The Sea, New Brunswick On a hot summer’s day, as a farmhand read a letter from his lover, a lover who happened to be his boss’s wife. The two knew their love could not blossom if her husband was still alive. One night, the husband was found murdered, and one of the farmhand’s tools was discovered by his body. The farmhand was arrested and sentenced to death. Through these proceedings he continually proclaimed his innocence. Years after his death, many people working in this heritage prison have seen the ghost of the man sitting in one of the cells. He can be heard whispering “I Am Innocent”

Enjoy, and let us know if you see any ghosties!!
