As soon as I got out I knew where the cache should be. I went to the area to discover some tape with a baggie attached to it. In the baggie was drugs, great what one does not want to find. The rest of the area had a large smashed pumpkin and was less desirable to look. Now the question to take the drugs and toss them in the trash as Geocaching has a policy of Cache in Trash Out and this would qualify under normal conditions. The problem is if I get stopped on the way to the nearest trash can how do I explain this? I left them behind.<\/p>\n<p>I arrived in Las Vegas and low and behold take the Bus to the Car Rental building only to find out that Fox rentals requires another shuttle.<br \/>\nGetting off the shuttle I looked in the parking lot to find no cars type of the rental class I rented. Yes, free upgrade!<br \/>\nI go inside and listen how I should upgrade for a low cost. I say no my Focus will do as that is what I drive back home. Okay go outside and see the guy. I get to pick my car from a row and choose a Dodge Journey. Okay off we go only to find that it has a low tire warning light. A stop at a gas station shows all tires okay so it must be the spare.<br \/>\nThe auto door locks don&#8217;t work either.<\/p>\n<p>I decided to use Excalibur this trip because it was cheap and being here for 10 days cuts costs. I find out on check-in the rooms in Tower 1 are being upgraded like those in Tower II.<\/p>\n<p>I was also to meet my friends from Inuvik NWT Chris and Bev tonight and have dinner.<br \/>\nChris was the one who started me off on caching a few years back.<\/p>\n<p>It was great start to a great 10 days of caching<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I left early this morning to avoid the border line-ups with the idea I would do a few caches on the way to the Bellingham Airport.
