Father-of-five couldn't find Another B.I.G. Cache
#2 on a 0 out of 2 lunch break "cachebust"....

As I was scurrying around in the woods - a B.I.G. employee shouted down to me... "Are you one of those GPS guys looking for stuff in the woods from that webpage?" "Yes", I said expecting the police to show up any moment... "You are pretty close then! I saw a couple of other guys down there last year, and that's about where they were."

Helpful!! How cool! So I continued upon my quest - but my GPSr was bouncing ALL OVER the place - I was wandering in about a 30' circle - back and forth... Alas, due to my time constraints (lunch break almost over) - I had to leave without the find...

I am having a horrorific early season this year.... Blech!!

----------------------------------------
By this time, and all these DNF’s – I was getting a bit frustrated. 
I was about to “throw in the towel for the day, but I did not want to end on a DNF – I decided to try for one more!

Cache was out in the open - very easy to see.
I placed it back in what I thought was the "Beacon" and camouflaged it a bit!

Slipped in the mud, and slid through the mud on this cache.

I'm making a run to "Best Bud Ed's" cabin to help him put in the dock for the season.  I had hoped to nab a couple of TB's to give them some extra milage...  I was in a hurry and on a bit of a time crunch, so I located a cache with a TB that would be a quick and easy find.

GC21GFD
- Park & Grab (Or Not)
#1 on a 2 out of 2 day! TFTC!

GC25DD7
- Ruins of Repossessed Dreams
#2 on a 2 out of 2 day! I picked this cache specifically for the AMTG Virtual Stars and Stripes GC TB that is listed as being inside the cache (heading up on a road trip tomorrow... Thought I could help someone log some miles!) Alas, I did not see the coin... TNLNSL - TFTC!
