Tiger130 posted that she intended to find Will o' the Wisp to coloring in her 366 day geo-calender. I knew my schedule would be tight with family activites coming up that weekend. Got ahead of the curve with home front work and cleared my Friday to set out for Shelby County. Since I was traveling the longest distance, I posted that I would be at Huey's in Collierville prior to the cache run for dinner. Five cachers joined me for a nice dinner and fellowship. We also chatted about what direction to take for next year's cachepedition.
During dinner, I was informed that we would be near Mission Improbable and advised that I should complete this mission. After dinner, I followed bitbrain and Tiger130 to the first stage of Mission Improbable. We separated on the highway going towards Will o' the Wisp and was one of the to arrive. My autorouting was not working for me and I had to guess, which road to take to the parking area. Arrival at the parking area, it was pitch black and it was hard for me to make out who was who in the crowd. While standing around, I gave Tiger130 one of my combat shirts that was issued to me during my deployment in 2010.
We set out for the cache with Tiger130 in the lead. After some hiking we arrived at the reference point. This night cache was not the typical follow reflectors but was very innovative. After a long search the cache was found and signed by everyone. We hiked back to the parking area and I found the micro at that location.
Getting late, I went to the final state of Mission Improbable and started this cache alone. Found first couple of sets of reflectors and then saw the cache is in need of work with some reflectors mission. Cache ownered joined me and I finished the cache.
Saw where I had a specific mission of having my photo taken at a playground slide, that that was unusual, I guess I had a log of a cache in a playground that brought up some interest. It would be a few days before I had my photo taken at a slide and later uploaded onto the cache page.
