This is a post office cache, so it has postcards that you can send to other geo-cachers and can hold travel bugs. Does not contain regular trading items. There is one card that is to be sent on to Montreal and 5 blanks to start it off. I will add more as needed. You may trade a card or add cards if you are sending cards on. I am also putting in Evil Bunny Travel Bug and a Jeep Travel Bug. FTF certificate.
Have fun

Found it 8/26/2007 by Kabuthunk
I must admit... I never expected to get this geocache today. In all honesty, I didn't even realize that it existed until I happened to be driving home down Lagimodiere, and glanced at my GPS for no real particular reason. Suddenly... what's this? The icon of a Traditional cache? I thought I'd cleaned this area out! And what's this... not a Micro? That means it's not a Conquista that I've left. WOOH BigSmile!

Doing a quick U-turn at that Island Lakes place at the start of Bishop Grandin, I quickly swung around and wandered off down... Capcom? Caplan? *checks map* Capston street (I can never remember the name of it) towards the cache. Here we discovered a really nice looking park area and artificial pond (which I'm not too fond of... since if I'm going to live beside water, I want it to be something I can swim in... but that doesn't change the fact that it looked quite nice). Parking the car, we hopped out and found ourselves looking at the official count of "a crap-ton" of geese ToungeOut. I've attached a picture of a small sampling of them.

*sigh* When the geese start coming around for Fall... you know that puffy, cold, white stuff isn't far behind Frown.

But I digress... the geocache. This was actually the last geocache of the day for me, and it was quite a fun one to end the day with Smile. Started out once again taking a more difficult path than I needed to to get to the geocache, and took the easy way out afterwards. However... I figured it'd be an interesting place for the cache when my GPS said that the coords weren't on land ToungeOut. I figured it had to be close. In retrospect... from my sitting position there, I should have taken a picture of that pond again... I get the feeling that would have been a nice scene. But... I was too caught up and interested in the geocache to have noticed ToungeOut.

Thanks for the interesting location and a good hide. Definitely a good one to finish off the day with Smile. Especially since I found a geocoin in the cache. It's been WAY too long since I've had trackables for me to move around, so it's nice to have finally run across one of 'em BigSmile.

Took: "Original Stash" geocoin
