Geocache Description:

This is a pleasant neighborhood park with lots of green grass and a shady redwood grove. Your journey will be on a level path until that last few yards, where it gets tricky, especially when wet.

It IS easy being green, as the fake greenery nearby attests. This is a green cache both literally and figuratively. Contents include green things that are green in color, and green things that are not green in color.
Please try to leave green items (puns acceptable).
Original contents include:

"Plant a Tree" patch
"Save the Oceans" patch
Frog squirter ball
Green wooden flower peg
Green chicken brush
Green tea (with healthy antioxidants)
Green elephant stamp
Green Ninja
Recycle patch
Green pen
Packet of lettuce seeds
Packet of parsley seeds
Green peace necklace (pun intended)
Green peas (pun intended)
Green soap dish
Green cat collar
Green spatula
Greenback
CITO kit

Our first hide! Enjoy!

Update Dec. 17, 2006: After two mugglings we have rehidden a new container (a two-quart plastic jug with a green top) in what we hope is a slightly more muggleproof spot (but close enough that the coordinates don't need to be updated). We've restocked it with more green stuff including:

Incredible Hulk bags
Green brush
Green carabineer
Ty frog
Green puzzle
Another can of green peas
Two ducks from Ducky Lee that were the only survivors of the last muggling

By the way, if the south parking lot is full, there is a parking lot north of the park.

Update Jan 1, 2007

This afternoon we found our cache (muggled twice) out in the open. We rehid it. Please rehide it as you found it, unless you find it out in the open, and then please contact us (the owners).
