FOUND AGAIN

Someone responded to our post that they had found it and put it back. It was missing some parts and a bit broken but it can be easily fixed and replaced. So thanks for everyone's good thoughts.---J

stolen Geocache

Yesterday we had our only hide stolen. We knew that it would happen eventually but it still was sad. We even went out to the area today and hiked around for 2 hours to see if maybe someone had discarded it further up the trail. I think we as catchers need to become aware of how the cache looks when hidden. When we first hid it we made it look random but every time i went to check on it for maintenance their were bricks stacked up neatly and it looked more obvious. Me and my father r-of-clan-gunn spent 3 months creating the cache and a good chunk of change on the materials as it was voice activated and required the completion of a kit, and the development of our own bead board circuit. The very first thing my dad told me was that i wasn't allowed to be upset or cry when it got stolen because it probably would happen ( he predicted in the first month but it has lasted nine) So i haven't cried but it makes me mad its kind of rotten to take it, lots of people have gotten to enjoy it and if you thought it was neat why wouldn't you want someone else to enjoy it as well. It was probably one of the ENTITLED who drive around to fast, cut lines, or do all of the other rude things that a little common sense would tell you wasn't right. As for being someone who isnt into hiding film canisters but who put a great deal of effort into my caches it makes me want to stop contributing, if its just a little Tupperware box who cares. I am defiantly considering stopping work on the cache im building now and just stick to finding them. As you an tell i haven't found a lot i really just liked the idea of building some that were cool but whats the point if someone decides the deserve it and just takes it. So to quit or not that's the Question.
