| Is that like geocaching, but you store money instead of trinkets? |

I looked over a few locations in my area, and it was enough to get me to register with the website. I regularly go on long walks across the city with my siblings, so it'd be fun to do this in the meantime.  |

First off, my deepest, heartfelt apologies to Smokey the Bear. When I redeposited the container, the magnet didn't hold, the whole thing tumbled, and the yellow pieces of paper dropped out. Those and the lid are irretrievable, but after half an hour of trying to find the right branch, we rescued the container, and the logs were still inside. We ever-so-slightly changed the hiding place to prevent something like that from happening again. Consider our signature to be the branches left by the wayside.

That sounds fun  I had one cache that was hidden in a bus stop. For three weeks we drove by this stop every day and looked but could not find it.Or there was someone there so we couldnt even look. late one night we were looking when the caches creator came to put the cache back after tacking it down for a couple weeks for repairs. |
