FireRef (Found it) GC1W3XC - KFPz (1.5/1.5) by grammyannie
This was the first cache that myself and Lil Bro B went and did today on a short cache run in the Erie area. We decided to hit some of the ones in the Erie area. This was a quick easy find, and he knew right where to go, even though he has only gone caching with me a couple of times. Thanks for putting this one out, and for all of the caches you make available for us to find!

FireRef (Found it) GC1P7Q3 - Dont' Get Stumped (1/1) by SPHOONY
This was the second of 7 caches that Lil Bro B and I looked for on this nice warm fall evening. We stopped by this house, which I had considered looking for before, but didn't feel comfortable by myself, so we grabbed it when there were several of us. This was a quick find - cool way to hide it, in plain site. Thanks for putting it out!

FireRef (Didn`t find it) GC1YY91 - Scary Park (1/1.5) by The Goonies 7
Lil Bro B and me looked for this cache for about 20 minutes - no luck. I read through the old logs, and realized that it had been moved since it was originally placed, but we were looking in the place that the new info pointed us toward. We also noticed that it had been found 4 times today before we showed up, which surprised us that we just couldn't come up with the find. We went in the park and looked for Dery's Gold Cache, which we found, and then looked for a few minutes when we came back out with no luck. We'll have to swing back by here sometime soon.

FireRef (Found it) GC1R9T4 - Dery's Gold Cache (2/2.5) by Dery
This was the third cache that Lil Bro B and me looked for tonight and found. This was a cool walk through this little park - I had been here a few times with some other cachers or friends, and remember some interesting caches placed in here. It also seems like they get muggled a lot by the kids that come through here, but I think this one should last a while considering how it is hidden. We got to it, signed the log, and headed back out. Thanks for bringing us here - we managed 1 of the 2 caches in the park, because we DNF'd the new one at the entrance.

FireRef (Found it) GC1Z0YW - People Helping People (1.5/1.5) by llizb
This was the fourth of 7 caches that Lil Bro B and I went looking for tonight. We actually were headed toward this one when my fire department got a call for a structure fire - Lil Bro B is actually planning on joining this coming month. We headed to the FD, I got on the first Engine out, and just as we were about to leave, we got word that it was a controlled burn. Darn - and I made the first engine! Oh well. Once we got cleaned up, we headed out and looked for this cache for about 15 minutes before we found it. This particular location I had skated at a while back with some friends, so I was familiar with this parking lot. Thanks for bringing us here! Lil Bro B managed to scratch up his leg on a bunch of prickers and I almost got a large branch stick in (yes, IN!) my leg, but we managed to make the find and get out without any serious injuries. Thanks for putting this cache out!

FireRef (Found it) GC1JVKG - The Great Wall (1.5/1) by Newt22
This was the fifth of seven caches that Lil Bro B and I did tonight. This was a quick find, and with about a half hour before we needed to head back, this was a fun one to grab. Lil Bro B mentioned he likes this kind more than the long walks in the woods that usually happen with most of the people we go caching with like to find. Thanks for bringing us here - 2 of the other people I cache with have job interviews at the biggest store in the plaza sometime later this week. Hope they have good luck!

FireRef (Found it) GC1PW7Y - We Need a NEW one! (1.5/1.5) by Newt22
This was the sixth of seven caches that Lil Bro B and I did on this short cache run this evening. This has been here for a while, and I was here when the Cider Mill burned. I actually had a ton of photos of the fire, since I was the photographer for the fire department whose area this is in at the time it burned. Thanks for bringing me back here. I'd like to see them get around to rebuilding this, but the owner doesn't seem to be in any hurry to do so. We hunted for about 15 minutes, and finally found it in a simple place that we just overlooked the first time we looked there. Thanks for the cache!

FireRef (Found it) GC1MJZZ - My Everyday Run To The Mill (1.5/1.5) by brickhead28
This was the seventh of seven caches that Lil Bro B and I did on this short evening of caching. We looked in the wrong place at first until we looked at the satellite views of the area - once we looked there, it was right where we thought it would be. Thanks for bringing me back here - I used to be a fireman in the local department and have been up here a lot of times - I am now in a department further East, so I'll only be here once in a while with assist calls. Thanks for the cache!
