Found it 4/13/2007 by Kabuthunk
Archimedes may strike again, but unfortunately for him... I strike back ToungeOut. Totally self-defense though. He was coming at me... and... and I think he had a KNIFE! What other choices did I have? I closed my eyes, took a swing, and BAM, my fist somehow struck him and then accidentally kicked him a few times after he fell down ToungeOut.

That aside... I love your puzzle-making methods BigSmile. The first Archimedes actually put up a good fight, and even required me to collaborate some information before it was solved. THIS one however... took significantly less time. Luckly, I'm quite skilled in THIS particular puzzle's method of... puzzling.

Anyhoo... after snagging the coordinates and dumping them into my GPS, I started off. Rush hour was nigh-finished, so it was pretty smooth sailing (except that today, it seems like everyone must have thought it was "cut off Kabuthunk" day. That's about the ONLY explanation for about a half-dozen vehicles on the road, never mind the trip BACK from the cache, too). Found parking nearby to where it was listed in the posted coordinates, and started out.

And what's this I see? Could that be... forest-like trees? Well... a little less dense than my prefered type of forest-caching, but it got me out into the trees and bushes anyway... so I'm happily pleased Smile. Got to ground zero, and discovered that there's actually quite a few places the cache container could have been hiding. After several minutes of looking around, I spotted it. Not sure how I missed it on first scan of the area... but I spotted it nonetheless.

Thanks for the nice trip through the pseudo-forest, and another 2TF. Hey, I don't mind not getting FTF... occasionally getting in the top 3 medal-rankings is plenty good in my books ToungeOut.

Took: Nothing (CAN we trade stuff here, or are you collecting signature items from everyone?)
Left: Logbook entry and chainmail ball (surprise, surprise ToungeOut)
