Found it 10/24/2006 by Kabuthunk
Quite a quick find. Ended up parking in the visitor parking of that church/university nearby. Had it sit around in the car for about 10 minutes, since some guy who was waiting for someone was watching me, and I didn't feel comfortable wandering off towards the cache with him watching. In either case... the person he was waiting for eventually came by, and I was free to wander.

A few minutes later, I was at the cache location. Man... that was a really, really easy find. I'm quite surprised it hasn't been snagged by a bystander or something. Then again, I can't see any particular reason someone would happen to look there if not specifically looking for the cache, but you get the idea. Peripheral vision could pick it up and such. In either case... signed the log, and had to take off due to needing to go to work. Forgot to put the word I picked (Dual) in the actual logbook... but it honestly doesn't matter, since it's EXCRUCIATINGLY unlikely that I'll find the rest of the Mayor caches (ie: all except the two I've now found) in the next two days ToungeOut. So yeah... no big worries there.

Took: The word 'dual', as much good as that will do me ToungeOut
