Bobolu’s Special Cache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

ka6aru (Jim): I finally got a chance to stop by this cache today & it looks like the State, County, or City (whoever the powers to be) stopped by here after many yrs (6 that I know of) & fixed the broken drain pipe & picked up my cache & probably just trashed it.
Oh well. It had a good run.

Geocache Description:

Not bad terrain, just don't fall in the broke pipe

This is a very special cache because it came from Bobolu but they didn’t hide it… It all started in 2005 when they were joking with me because I only put out micro caches… So, on New Years Day, I found a note on my door saying:

Attention Jim, Check out these coordinates today. This is for first to find only. Then a happy face & some coordinates. Also a hint: Red & white stake you can’t eat. I thought it was them, but my wife didn’t want me to go, since it was dark & getting late, & she thought it was creepy that someone left a note on our door without signing it… So I watched for a new cache .3 tens of a mile from our house… The next day it was pouring down rain, but I went to check it out anyway, but I didn’t have my boots… The grass was tall & my tennis shoes were getting soaked, so I quit after 5 min… I kept check for a new cache to come up, but nothing… So, L went back to school on 1-4-05 & I thought I would make one more ready good search with these mysterious coordinates… Well I found it… And inside was a poem… A poem for me…

Hi Jim, Name this cache, it’s for you to hide. So put that mini one aside. We joked last year what cool things you would do. So now the rest is up to you. Have fun with your cache. We’ll watch for it to come out. If we are the first to find you’ll hear us shout. Happy New Year & thanks for all your help. Bob & Lu

So that is why I named it Bobolu’s Special Cache… Now there is more to the story, like someone found the cache & signed the log because they thought is was one that was near by. But that is for another day….

  • Log book & pen in a zip lock baggie…
