Getting locked out of work is not really the best start to ones day, but today it did afford me the extra few minutes to be able to wander away from the office to visit the caches near the office.

Found the Cache
GC2XBWQ - City of Troy - By a tree, near a brook once the
phone GPS (Droid 2 Global) settled down. I was able to locate the cache with minimal to no bushwhacking. Now I did have to make sure that I approached from the correct side of the brook--which I did not. If you have a similar view of the statue shown above the fold you are on the wrong side of the brook.

The
Lock-and-lock container was well hidden, but not too difficult once the caching sense kicked in. Truthfully i have been getting really rusty on non-urban caches lately. So finding a cache that did not require magnets was a change of pace.

The next cache on the walk was GC2XBXV City of Troy - Bridge View. Again without my cache senses working I walked past the stash a couple of times before I happened to look correctly. I did know to avoid any bushwhacking and no extraordinary measures are needed. No, you don't need to do anything suspicious looking while here in the shadow of City Hall.

In the meantime I did find a trackable, which i logged the touch of but did not grab.
