Pull me to victory - 7/29/11

KBLAST and I could not finish The Golden Spike (look for a post on that in the near future - I think I might be able to find this one!) so we headed to a nearby new one he hadn't found called Pull me to victory. It's a cache on the Ohio Statue University campus. I started searching near GZ, but the hint said to look somewhere else. I got to what the hint was referring to and immediately started climbing (sometimes it's tough being a geohamster - almost ALL caches are climbers!!!)
Started searching, but as I was, 2 police cars showed up! I jumped into KBLAST's pocket to avoid unnecessary confusion (hamsters aren't usually as trained as I am.) The police asked KBLAST what he was up to, and he said he was checking out the old fence post. They said they got a call that he was passed out under a tree! KBLAST started laughing, but the policeman told him he had a lot of work to do and that he wasn't finding this as funny. KBLAST finally fessed up and said he was geocaching, then had to explain how he knew there was a cache there, give them his license, etc.

After the policeman confirmed KBLAST was telling the whole truth, he told KBLAST that there were a lot of other caches on campus! Then a couple of guys came out of a nearby trailer and said KBLAST was just looking for the geocache they had placed. :D They were watching from the window and laughing at him looking! Glad I was hidden most of the time. Anyway, KBLAST made the find while the police and workers watched, but I had stayed in his pocket to avoid being seen. So one more DNF for me! Hope The Golden Spike pans out for me some day!
