The intent of this cache is to show the neat architecture of the older Seattle Public Library Buildings. Cache is a nano container.

I recently helped a geobuddy pick up an archived cache, that another geocacher inadvertently left in an inaccessible location. I thought it was fitting that I continue his series with the same container

Another lovely older public library

"Semi-evil"? Why stop at semi? I think this qualifies for fully evil! (And reading the logs, it probably should have a full 3 stars: "An experienced cache hunter will find this challenging.") Nevertheless, I WILL RETURN and find this thing. Don't know how much longer I can get away with telling the muggles "Don't mind me...I'm meeting someone on the library steps, and in the meantime I'm just appreciating, in a very tactile way, the exquisite craftsmanship of this historic building."

My son and I found this after picking up some bagels for breakfast. Cool nano container!

I thought with the location this would be easy. But it was a lot harder then I thought. TYFTH

This little thing took a while to find. With so many muggles around even made it harder. TFTH

they were thrilled!

Had a pretty good idea what I was looking for when I got there. Sure enough.....it didn't take long. Nice building! TFTH! (489)

We looked for about 10-15 minutes but now after reading the logs I see we were way off track.

This was my third try on this cache, didn't bring by GPSr or a pen but this time I read the logs. Very cool cache. TFTH

After at least three failed attempts to find this bugger last summer I gave it a rest for a while. Today's ten finds in a row emboldened me to take another stab at it. Doh, found it immediately this time! TFTH. (11th of 11 today)

Wow! After a year of looking and NOT finding, we were finally clued off by Semper Fi, who we "caught" when they found our cache! We would often search awhile for the micro-cache when we went to the library,in hope of snagging it without a GPS. But even when we did bring it, no luck. But with the Semper Fi clue we "seized the day" and found it in no time --wow it really is small!

Must have been our third or fourth time. My son, daughter, and I had been looking for more of a macro-micro the first couple times. Finally! This was certainly as "cute as a button."
