[GeoStL] Re: Eddie's Picnic Friends Cache

Mike,

what area is being burned? I'm working lateish (word?) tomorrow & Friday and 
could possibly replace it for you. But it would be helpful if I knew where to 
NOT put it. I will have to call up all Babler WP locations too (thinking out 
loud...) so it won't be placed too close to another cache...

Eddies Picnic Friends cache has been around since 9/30/2001 when SLAGA
 had 
their first annual picnic. Although the cache was placed in Babler
 after 
Rockwoods determined that caching was not supportive of their plans for
 
Rockwoods Reservation, It still is the first cache hidden by the St.
 Louis 
Area Geocachers Association.

I received a call from Hannah (Oh look, a palindrome, like "pull up
 Hannah, 
pull up!")
Sorry, got sidetracked, anyhow she told me that the permit expired and
 that 
we needed to remove the cache. I asked about extending the permit and
 she 
replied that there was to be a controlled burn in that area and she 
suggested moving it to another spot.

It was so awesome there. So I have pulled the cache and temp disabled
 it. I 
will move to another location and have Glenn change the coords so it
 will 
remain in Babler. We just cannot let the historic caches die. Now to
 find a 
great little spot for it. Any suggestions? Would some one else like to
 hide 
it? It makes no difference to me. I was just the permit holder but the
 cache 
belongs to SLAGA and everyone who caches.

It is a large Tupperware container that I replaced the original Ammo
 box 
when the State Parks first did their policy of No Ammo boxes. Now, they
 
allow them but I went out and bought the largest tupperware container I
 
could find to replace the large ammo box. It has received some good
 comments 
on it's size.

If no one wants to hide it in the next few days, I will head out and
 place 
it along one of the many trails and apply for the permit.
