DISABLING YOUR CACHE

Greetings,

Here are a few reasons for your cache to be disabled:

What do I do as an owner when this happens?

  1. Go to the cache location ASAP and verify that the cache container is indeed missing.
    A. If it is missing, then you should either replace the container or write a note about your maintenance plans.
    b. If the container is replaced, then write an Owner's Maintenance log note.
    HOW TO LOG THIS.
    c. Once the owners' maintenance log has been submitted, then you will need to enable your cache page for all to find once again.

  2. If you are unable to go to the cache location, then write a note (a note to the reviewer, not an owner's maintenance note) about what your maintenance plan is for the cache. By doing this, your cache will not be archived due to inattention.
  3. If you no longer wish to keep the cache active then you, as the cache owner, can archive the cache. HOW DO I ARCHIVE A CACHE I OWN?
  4. Remember, once archived by you or the reviewer it will not be unarchived due to no maintenance. Cache archival is permanent, so please respond so that this does not happen. CACHE ARCHIVAL IS PERMANENT.

If this is not yet disabled, I am temporarily disabling your cache at this time to allow you to check on the cache and take whatever action is necessary. If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) in the VERT near future, so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

Cache archival is permanent, so please respond so that this does not happen.

Many thanks,
Glenn

Geocache Description:

A quick park and grab micro just off Hwy 79. Bring your own pen or pencil. Convenient parking next to the cache location.

This cache takes its name from the nearby public utility. I had considered the Sweet Smell of Success and the Foul Smell of O’Fallon, so I combined them, probably the wrong way. There are days when you’ll be glad this is a quick find. The city fathers blame the frequent stench on the effluent of a thriving pet food factory. The nearby subdivision homeowners constantly complain about the smell, even though they bought their homes long after the sewage plant was in operation, and suffered with this problem. I don’t know what they were thinking when they plunked down their money and took possession of their deeds. I just think it’s hilarious. BTW, there’s a nice seasonal nursery just down the road. I have no relation with it other than being an occasional satisfied customer.

So, hold your nose, jump out of the car, find this little puppy and sign the log. Hey, nobody ever said every cache has to be pretty!

Number Two in the series Just Another Stinking Cache Along The Way.

Congratulations to stlredrocker on a first FTF!
