Geocache Description:

An easy cache on a quiet street.  Adjacent to sidewalk. Parking nearby. Wheelchair accessible. It’s a letterbox hybrid because the Muggle homeowner that agreed to let me place the cache used to letterbox and was curious about geocaching. But please don't come here after bedtime, out of respect for the neighbors. Daylight and dog-walking hours into twilight are best. Come back another time if the neighborhood isn't awake and it's late enough to consider stealth.


The cache is thinly disguised as a book inside this Little Free Library, a neighborhood book-sharing depository hosted by an individual homeowner. It's a great place for a cache because any Muggle will just assume you're looking at the reading material.

In fact, in addition to any small swag, travel bugs or geocoins you might trade in the cache (use caution with TBs and geocoins because Muggles may look inside), please feel free to bring a paperback or hardcover novel you've read to trade for another book in the library if you see something that catches your eye. For example: In another similar cache I have nearby I once traded my copy of "Into the Wild" by Jon Krakauer for a copy of JRR Tolkien's "The Silmarillion." The owner of this library makes sure there are kids books in here, so keep it clean!

Parking is EZ, but please note the street-sweeping No Parking hours on Tuesdays. The meter maid trails right behind the sweeper, so you're probably OK if you don't hear it coming. No guarantees.

If you like this one and want to see more of the neighborhood, walk on over to my other similar cache, Little Free Library - Floral Park aka GC4QJ2N.

Congratulations to Smoochersmom on the FTF!!!
