Rich,

I plan to be there, but will probably have to stick with just the agget caches 
and then leave.  I will meet up with you at the commuter lot.

  I looks like we have some interest in doing a group cache this Tuesday (Oct. 
28) at 9AM. We plan to meet at the commuter lot at I-44 and HW 109 in Eureka. 
The lot is on the So. side of I-44 across from QT and is the exit before 6 
Flags if you are going West.

  The 2 aggets caches are about a 2-3 mile drive from the lot. Since the 
commuter lot is popular and is normally full, we may have to drive near the 
cache area (Hw 109 & Old State Road) and park in the new County park lot. 

  The old gravel quarry and RR right-a-way have been cleaned up and is almost 
ready to open as a new St. L. County park.  New trail bridges have been built 
and the right-a-way resurfaced like the Katy trail.

  Total walking distance will be about 4 miles along a flat, packed gravel 
trail. There will be one steep climb up the side of the overlook (walkable) for 
one of the best views in St. Louis county. 

  Within the next month or so I will archive these two caches and place one or 
two more that takes advantage of the layout of the park.

  After the hike we can go to Eureka for lunch or pizza.

  Here are the ones that have shown interest in this group hike:
  A&W, rocksusan, Happykraut, Strider, Myotis, Le-roy, and Goshhawk. 
  Sorry if I've left anyone off the list but everyone is invited.

  Commuter lot coords - N38 30.378 W90 37.519  (These coords may be off since 
the cloverleaf is different than Mapsource displays). It will be close enough 
to get you to the QT station and lot.
