Geocache Description:

My grandson, the youngest member of the Ouque-pique clan arrived a month ago and his parents called him James, reminding me of the James Taylor song “Sweet Baby James”.  And he is the sweetest, gentlest, most cuddly baby ever!


Listening to that song, I got to thinking of a Jesse Winchester tune that I played over and over on my old turntable around the time when our own firstborn arrived in 1974. It was called Do-La-Lay.

Baby do la lay my child
One and one made you
So right away we make you cry
To show you who is who

Oh, little child of love
I won't get in your way
Let me look out from above
Over you baby do lay lay

Oh, I am a father now
I can't get out of that
And you are my child now
You can't get out of that

And oh little child of love
I won't get in your way
Let me look out from above
Over you baby do la lay
Over you lovely do la lay
Over you lovely do la lay

Français:

La cache est un gros bison, camo, caché près du coin sud-est d’un centre commercial, pas très loin d’un camion de patates frites. Attention de ne pas glisser en cherchant la cache - ça pourrait se terminer par un bain froid dans le ruisseau! Les enfants devraient être tenus à l'écart.

Stationnement tout autour du centre d’achats.  Attention aux moldus: deux écoles et une cabane à frites tout près. S-V-P prendre soin de bien replacer la cache compte tenu de tous ces moldus.

Prix pour le premier à trouver la cache: épinglette FTF.

English:

The cache is a larger bison, camoed, hidden close to the south-east corner of a shopping mall, not very far from a chip wagon. Be very careful not to slip while searching for the cache - you could easily end up in the creek below!  Children should be kept away.

Parking is available nearby in the shopping mall.  Watch out for muggles: two schools and a chip wagon nearby. Please take care to replace the cache properly so as not to attract the attention of muggles.

Fist Time Finder prize: FTF pin.
