Geocache Description:

Cache is located in an urban park and is easily accessible.

This cache is a large (9"X12"X3") clear rectangular Tupperware container with a green lid. When replacing the cache, please make sure it is well concealed! It is located in a pleasant little park where I often take my sons to play. It is usually very busy so be discrete! (Parking available at N32 44.942'/W117 10.695').

Ever heard of the film Poltergeist? This park was once the location of a good-sized cemetary, and it is rumored that only the headstones were moved (and not the bodies!) to make way for this park...so no cursing, and careful where you tread! There is a sampling of the headstones and a list of all the park's unexhumed residents located in the southeast corner that is worth a look to either the morbidly curious, or historically inclined.

Please feel free to take your picture with the disposable camera. Perhaps the person shooting the last frame could post that fact so we can retreive and develop the film. Thanks!

After a successful hunt I would recommend going to Phil's BBQ nearby (N32 45.031'/W117 10.283')for some great homemade ice cream, coffee, or ribs. MMMM!
