Myerstown Lock

A small park in Myerstown borders a youth baseball field.  Several easy trails and paths run through it beside a creek that winds deeper into the woods.  The geocache Myerstown Lock is hidden in those woods.  The container was an old army ammo can.  It was hidden underneath some large old rocks that make up the end of a crumbling old wall in the middle of the woods.  Aparently, this is where the Myerstown lock chamber was located on the Tulpehocken creek.

The end of the wall.  The geocache container is in there somewhere.

The ammo can container filled with some decent swag.

The Saviors

After finishing up my second meeting of the day in Glassboro, I took a short stroll through a small park by a pond and grabbed The Saviors geocache. It was a small bottle covered with camouflage tape, hidden in the thick shrubbery at the base of a small tree. It was easy to find and the park was beautiful, which made for a nice little break from working in the afternoon.
