Woo Hoo!! FTF #1 on OC!

goo goo g'joob

This was my first OC find and a FTF! I was attending the GC.com event celebrating Octopus Garden's 10 Year Anniversary as the oldest active cache in NC. Therapaint arrived and mentioned the coordinates but said he would have to leave and not make the search. Apoolman put the coordinates in his GPS and we headed in to find Octopus Garden with a group. After everyone that had not found OG signed the log and started back, apoolman and I headed towards The Walrus. At first we thought we were going to have to cross the water, but that little strip of high ground just kept going and kept getting narrower. Just as apoolman was looking at his GPS and said "25 feet", I spotted it and said, "Hucklebuckle" just as apoolman was about to say the same thing. 

It may be Tuesday before I can give this one a new home. I had a great place in mind but then I read the description and it is supposed to stay in Mecklenburg County so I had to use Google Maps to find a new place. When I arrived there I was encounter by a fence. But I do have a couple other places in mind.

Thanks goes out to TermiteHunter for placing the cache & apoolman for the company and the pathtag!
