Caches - Fun or Evil?

When I was working on digging the trench, I found a cast plastic head in one of the flowerbeds that I was removing. I decided that with a paint job, it would make a good cache. It served as the impetus for a series of caches featuring the Lost Dutchman, Pegleg Smith, and Captain Kidd treasures. They've been in place nearly three weeks now.

I'm loving the comments I'm getting in the logs for the Lost Dutchman and Pegleg caches. Here's a sample:

• For the Lost Dutchman: "Freaky looking;" "So grotesque;" "Some caches stick in your mind, this one will for me;" "Freaked me out!;" and perhaps the best, "Sheesh, wondered where that went to!!!" (Maybe I should have asked?)
• For Pegleg: "Got a real kick out of the container;" "What an awesome container;" "Great imagination at work;" and, "I absolutely love it!" 

Since I was in the area when the caches published, I went out to get some pictures. Turns out the puzzle to solve for the coordinates of the Capt. Kidd cache was pretty puzzling. I think I heard "evil" mentioned more than once. (Insert evil laugh and huge smile here!)

While Spencer was here, we finished up some caches that he named Waterworks since they were all made from pipe. They're all classic, fun caches, but unique for this area. Unfortunately, we didn't get placed before he left, but he'll be able to watch the logs to see the comments that people leave when they find them. I've been pleasantly surprised by the very positive comments from folks that have found them.

On a very different subject, the location of the 2nd Annual BloggerFest in Quartzsite has moved to the La Posa South LTVA. I'm still looking forward to meeting other RV bloggers there.
