Geocache Description:

This is a wooded area with a path going through it which connects 2 streets. In my early days, I attended Crane School nearby, and had to travel down this path, which my mother called the School Path. Sometimes, evil Grade 5 boys would be sitting up in the trees heckling the Grade 1 girls as they ran down the path with fear in their eyes. Ahh - memories.

Quoting Kabuthunk in his log for InSeine Cache "don't get me wrong - I love forest caches."
This was the best I could do James. Enjoy this easy 2-part cache.

The cache was muggled twice so now it is a traditional cache. The cache is located just off the trail and might be winter friendly until the snow is very deep. It is difficult to get a good reading due to dense foliage. Just look for the obvious.
Please close container snugly and hide upside down so that water runs out. You will have to bring your own pencil as I completely forgot to include one.

Back in the summer of 2006
Along came a cacher who hailed from the sticks
Kabuthunk’s the name that he signs on his logs
But he also signs James or just Kabs on his blogs.

Kabs has been blessed with the gift of fine writing.
He regales us with tales after every cache sighting.
His highs and his lows are recorded at length.
But writing is not this man’s singular strength.

Planet Zebeth receives time and attention,
But other fine talents are worthy of mention.
Who else can create, with elaborate ease
Balls of chain-mail as lovely as these

Some have their poker chips, some have wild hair...
Some have their Ninja stamps; some just don’t care…
But only Kabuthunk can leave an impression
As that made by chain-mail at every cache session.

My challenge to all as you find this new cache...
Is to write up a log that has wit and panache
BBrown – this includes you, so get fingers typing
I don’t want to hear any whining and griping

I hope you will all take this prose in good fun.
We are blessed with a community second to none!
So here’s to a cacher I’ve come to admire...
If I ever need chain-mail, I’ll know who to hire!

Best place to park would be on Crowson Bay, and then mark your car. Follow the path until your GPSr guides you into the big, dark forest

Oh yeah.... one more thing... if you don't find this the first time around, I hope you have a successful DINIFRA in the future!
