Dude! Where's my cache?!? Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

jbeck2: Well, after this one was "lost" the first time around, I went out, couldn't find it, and placed a replacement container...

Then Dronnord goes and finds the original container. (Proving to the world that it is in fact true that I DON'T know where any of my caches are...)

I went back again, and FOUND the original, but then couldn't find the replacement. (So I couldn't remove it.)

Someone since has found the replacement.

Lately After a few DNF's, I began to wonder about this one again...

Well, I went out to look for it and couldn't find either container.

They are probably BOTH gone. Probably...

Anyhow, I couldn't bring myself to put down a third container. (Especially given the photographic evidence that at least one of them has likely been muggled...)

Geocache Description:

There is no cache at the posted coordinates - but I coached soccer there this year...

Dude! Where's my Cache.

Continued Misadventures of Jbeck2 - the Newbie Geocacher

CALLING ALL FELLOW GEOCACHERS: I've just been released from the hospital with a chipped ungual, which I received as a result of a series of unfortunate events that occurred when attempting to place my first Geocache hide. As you can imagine due to the severity of my injury, I'll need to take it easy for a while, which is why I need YOUR HELP. But more on that later... First I need to take some more pain medication.

And to think that the day had started out so well...

I had decided that I'd had enough with the continual headaches and sleepless nights trying to figure out Kbrunog's puzzle caches…and then to find out that Xriva and Kbrunog were in fact the same person was just too much to bear.

I wasn't going to take it anymore.

I was going to give him some of his own medicine.

That's right! I'd place my OWN puzzle cache.

And best of all, I'd used my vast array of technical skills to come up with a cipher to code the coordinates in a way that was SO clever that it would be very difficult to crack!

After a bit of searching, and stumbling over other people's caches already in all the good locations, I found the perfect spot. Now it was time to put my (very clever) cipher into action. I pulled out my camera and asked various nearby muggles to take pictures of me...

This first picture was taken by a guy on a bike:

These two were was taken by a couple out for a walk.

This one was taken by a man walking his dog.

This one was taken by family picnicing at at a nearby park.

That's when the trouble started...

I needed one more picture to complete recording the coordinates in my (very clever) cipher. I saw an elderly lady sitting on a nearby bench. I asked her if she'd take a picture of me with my camera. She readily agreed. However, when I made the appropriate hand-cipher, instead of snapping the picture, she started hitting me with her cane! (which is how I sustained the afforementioned injury) Then she yelled at me. Then she threw my camera on the sidewalk, and walked off muttering.

I don't think I'll EVER understand what sets off these muggles! They always seem to turn on me...

Anyhow, sorry, but I'm missing a picture that I had intended to post with this cache - and sadly, my camera doesn't seem to be working - I think it was damaged in the incident. Worse yet, without the final picture, I can't seem to figure out where my cache is.

My first cache hide and I've LOST it!

I'm hoping someone out there can help me locate it, and maybe even give me some insight as to why the muggle attacked me in this fashion. (Was it something I said?!?) If you can somehow find it, there's a FTF prize in there that even someone with a fondness for repdigits would appreciate...

By the way, the cache may be difficult to spot as I put a lot of camo on the container.

Ooooooh… Time for more pain medication…
