Was driving by, so decided to go after this one. I must have hit 7 caches by this point, so I was all hyped up to try to just get a few more on the way home.

Which probably wasn't the best of ideas in retrospect, since there was food sitting in my trunk from my parent's place... but hey, I'm sure it's still good. It was still somewhat cold out .

Nonetheless... parked somewhat nearby and ran in for the kill... uhh... find . Seemed to be several people walking dogs (man, reminds me why I'd hate to own a bigger dog. Having to walk it/take it out to go to the washroom), even when you're either not wanting to or it's brutally cold. Yay for cats!), so I for the most part walked to look as inconspicuous as possible.

Walking towards the cache, I found what I think is the largest number of empty water bottles in any one foresty spot I've ever seen. If I had a garbage bag, I might have tried to clean some of it up (I mean... there must have been like 20 someodd thrown out in there. Must have been a weird party involving mostly water and a few cans of beer), but I lacked both a bag, and I was kinda running really low on time by this point.

Relatively easy find once I got there. Wasn't too many places it could have been, and I might have gotten a little lucky with spotting it too. Didn't bother snagging a word, since that part of this is... y'know... over :P
