the hermit crabs: We went out to this cache this afternoon and the container was indeed damaged beyond repair. We've retrieved the container and have decided to archive the cache rather than replace it. Thanks to all who visited, and RIP, Tim Wakefield!

Geocache Description:

Almost a year late, but we finally have our entry to the 2009 Boston Red Sox Roster Series (GC1TBZ1) .

One of the things we love about watching Wakefield pitch is how he makes it look so easy. A slow, effortless toss that looks like he could do all day. Such a simple-looking throw, but almost impossible to hit (or to catch). And not only do the batter and the catcher have no idea where the ball will end up -- even Wakefield himself often has no idea.

That sounds like a great way to go through life: shrug your shoulders, give it a shot, and see what happens. But don't make it look too hard.

The cache is a 8"x10" Lock & Lock style container located in a Maynard conservation area, in close proximity to several baseball fields. Initial contents include some baseball-themed items (some Red Sox, some generic). The cache is about 40 feet from the trail. Please cover it with leaves and sticks.

We initially got to the site by parking at the Crowe Field parking lot, next to the baseball field, and following the trail that starts behind center field. It turns out that there is closer parking at the dead end of Taylor Road. See "Additional Waypoints" below for parking coordinates.
