2099 2012-02-25 19:30 DudleyGrunt (user activity634) - Found it

3136 / 68.   I was working on NativTxn's Diversified Cacher contest, I planned to do #19 (cache 100 miles from home) and then come back towardFredericksburg to get some of the OCUS and TC caches in the area.

However, at about 10:45, I discovered I had a flat tire. With a combination of Fix-a-Flat and re-inflating it, I was able to get it to a tire shop, but it turned out I didn't have my lug nut key. It only took an hour an a half to figure that out for sure. I'd walked across the street to get lunch and it took a few phone calls to determine that the key was definitely not in the car. Had to find a Honda dealer, then, and had trouble getting either my Droid or my Nuvi go properly navigate there. Once I got there and let them take the car, I did get an hour in a massaging recliner, so it wasn't all bad.

After getting my car back around 4:30, I headed to Gordonsville, to get claim the credit for the contest.  I wasn't about to miss out on that, after all I went through.  Was 1 for 2 attempted OCUS hides, on the way home.

Had a little trouble, at first, but rechecked the cache page thoroughly and made the find.  I'll definitely get back down, before long.

Thanks and Happy Trails!
