This cache is dedicated to my friend and fellow cacher, OHMIC as
a thank you for the drive to help me reach both my 200th and 300th
cache find in less than a month. He has graciously allowed me to
place this cache in his honour. (Sing to the tune of "Hey Mickey" by Toni Basil)
OHMIC-y, lots of finds, lots of finds, it blows my
mind, OHMIC-y, OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, lots of finds, lots of finds, it blows my mind, OHMIC-y,
OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, lots of finds, lots of finds, it blows my mind,
OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y!
You've been around all night and that's a little long
You think we've got it right but we may have got it wrong
Why can't you say goodnight so we can all go home, OHMIC-y
'Cause when you say one cache, it always means 10 more
You're givin' me some help, and movin' up my score
Every night you won't leave me all alone, OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, what a pity you don't understand
You make my count go up when you take me by the hand
OHMIC-y, you're so eager, can't you understand
It's guys like you OHMIC-y
Oh, what you do OHMIC-y, do OHMIC-y
Find one more cache, OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y!
Now when all of them are found, everyone's gonna know
We have to get them all, before it starts to snow
We make a great team, so don't say no, OHMIC-y
So come on and get them for me any way you can,
Monkey Boys are better than your average cachin' man,
You can use Mr. Reachy if you're really in a jam, OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, what a pity you don't understand
You make my count go up when you take me by the hand
OHMIC-y, you're so eager, can't you understand
It's guys like you OHMIC-y
Oh, what you do OHMIC-y, do OHMIC-y
Find one more cache, OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, lots of finds, lots of finds, it blows my mind, OHMIC-y,
OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, lots of finds, lots of finds, it blows my mind, OHMIC-y,
OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, lots of finds, lots of finds, it blows my mind,
OHMIC-y
OHMIC-y, what a pity you don't understand
You make my count go up when you take me by the hand
OHMIC-y, you're so eager, can't you understand
It's guys like you OHMIC-y
Oh, what you do OHMIC-y, do OHMIC-y
Find one more cache, OHMIC-y

14/06/2007 By Kabutroid Pretty much immediately after having found Dani's nice-smelling-area cache a little bit to the West, I headed over to this cache in my quest to visit the "Manitoba Tyndall Stone" Earthcache sites. Yet another nice-smelling cache location. Man, I could get used to these .
There were however quite a number of random bystanders kicking around. Luckly, none were in the immediate area, and just walking down the sidewalk, minding their own business. Well... that, and some person taping signs of some sort to posts on the bridge... but their back was to me 99% of the time anyway. The mower that Slippery speaks of was long gone, as I didn't so much as even hear a mower... but could definitely tell that the grass was freshly mown.
Aw yeah... the smell of freshly mown grass AND flowers! This is arguably the best-smelling cache I've ever visited to date .
Looking non-geocachery was quite easy for this cache. Clipped to the side of my geocaching bag... is my camera. Pulling it out and pretending like I was taking pictures (didn't bother however, since flowers don't interest me all that much. In retrospect, I should have taken a pic for the cache page... but you know what they say about hindsight). A little "whoops, I slipped" motion, and the cache was in hand! Luckly, I was able to spot the cache container itself before attempting to go after it. Hence, when time time came to 'slip', it was an easy find. Although, in winter the cache might have some hiding problems, but I could easily be mistaken... I dunno.
So... a quick poke around the cache container, and seeing nothing that specifically piqued my interest to trade (it's kinda rare that I trade... but I always still check ), in goes a chainmail ball, and back goes the cache. To the bikemobile! Kabs has other caches to find .
