Wow.

That pretty much sums up this cache. Awesome view, awesome location, awesome hiding spot. I loved every possible aspect of this cache... and that's kinda rare to see Smile.

Wandered way back over to this cache from "Emmer's Cache" a little to the north. While I was crossing St. Mary's road (or whatever it's called at that particular point, just north of the Norwood bridge), I happened to run into another geocacher evidently. As these three people and myself were walking across, the guy of the three had spotted my GPS and asked "Looking for a geocache?", which kinda caught me off guard a bit ToungeOut. So I replied yep, going after the one on Norwood Bridge. Turns out this person was "Rezonk", who was just out for a stroll. Coincidentally, he ALSO had a GPS with him (the yellow gave it away when he held it up ToungeOut), but at the time was just using it to track how far they had walked. So we had a nice little chat, and went our seperate ways. Kinda nice to cross paths with someone.

Although, I had forgotten at the time... Rezonk... if you read this and want to "discover" me, I have a personal TB. Just drop me an email through my profile and I can send you the number if you want.

Anyhoo... got to the cache location, and was treated to looking at a very high river, which appeared to have a ton of ice chunks kinda stuck there (of which many coincidentally broke free as I was finding another cache a little west after this one, and I watched 'em float by). Mental note: go across that bridge more often. Again, loved the view, the hiding spot, and yeah... everything. Definitely the highlight of my day... hands down BigSmile.
