Double Your Fun

Really?  REALLY?  Really!!

August 2, 2012 - Our first cache in the dog days of August.  Actually the days around here have been dog days for most of the summer--whatcha gonna do?  Go caching!  So this was the last of the Imposter series for us to finish up.  [Ed note:  So I THOUGHT!  Another Imposter was just published on August 5 so apparently this series is ongoing.] We were pretty confident that we'd have no problem at all with this one considering the last Imposter of the series (#2) which we thought was crazy hard!  So we took off for the spot--just three of us.  Two Lorax's and a Jenner for the hide.  The hint given was "not your typical LPC (lamp post cache)."  And that couldn't have been truer.

We did the whole "look under the skirt of the lamp post thing" to no avail.  There were bushes all around the area and we looked extensively in those.  There were dozens of old bottles, empty beer cans, a wine bottle, a dirty diaper (gag!) and empty, crumpled up cigarette packs.  We pushed those around for awhile, but nothing popped out at us.

We even look at other lamp posts to see if the one we were concentrating on was like the other ones.  Were they all painted recently, did that one have a box on the back like ours did, stuff like that.  I drew the line at climbing the post, though.  :)

Not THAT desperate for a chew!

Then, all of a sudden, I saw a clump of chewed up gum.  No....it couldn't be...no way.  I poked it with my trusty stick and turned it over.  There was the micro sticking out of the bottom.  Evil genius!  Devious beyond measure!  Disgusting!  I love it.  So, we finished the Imposter series with a flourish and we did indeed, double our fun!
