Geocache Description:

Located off Hwy 31 in Pelham

I was talking to Bobndwoods about FTF's and said that I thought about putting out a cache that was full of micro containers, each containing a separate log with just 1 blank, the FTF blank! That way, everyone gets to claim an FTF!

Bobndwoods said that January14 made a comment on Dixiecachers.com along the same lines. It went something like this:

"Perhaps this cache was published 3 hours ago and while you know the FTF was grabbed 2:59 ago, you still just have to go find it to verify it for yourself.

Perhaps you were out of town and didn't know about the cache for 2 days and now you're going to go log it and get your smiley.

Maybe, just maybe, you have been busy with work and home for the last 10 days and the cache was not calling you... until today.

What do all of these have in common? If you find the cache and sign the log... YOU ARE CO-FTF with everyone else that has done the same.

The special logging requirements of this cache are:
1. Sign the FTF blank on one of the log's in one of the containers.
2. When you record the electronic log, write your story as if the paper log was empty when you signed it, cause the one you signed WAS.

Special bonus points for those that use works like Smudge, Pristine, Nice shiny. Of course, the bonus points are irrelevant, but you get the drift."

Anyone who doesn't adhear to the above stated rules will have their log promptly deleted!

It's that simple! There's NO need to "Sandbag" your find, since EVERYONE is an FTF! So, on to the hunt!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE FTFers!
