Bottle of Wine, Fruit of the vine

The wife and I took the time for a little local wine tasting event.
We had so much fun when we left we just had to place a cache nearby.
This silly old Kingston Trio song just keeps popping up in my head.


Bottle Of Wine lyrics

BOTTLE OF WINE
(Tom Paxton)

CHORUS:

Bottle of wine, Fruit of the vine
When you gonna let me get sober
Let me alone, let me go home
Let me go back and start over

Ramblin' around this dirty old town
Singin' for nickels and dimes
Times getting tough; I ain't got enough
To buy a little bottle of wine
CHORUS

Little hotel, older than Hell
Dark as the coal in the mine
Blankets are thin; I lay there and grin
'Cause I got a little bottle of wine
CHORUS

Pain in my head and bugs in my bed
Pants are so old that they shine
Out on the street, tell the people I meet
Won'cha buy me a bottle of wine
CHORUS

Well the preacher will preach; teacher will teach
A miner will dig in the mine
I ride the rods, trusting in God
A-huggin' my bottle of wine
CHORUS

Looked and looked no luck

Quick find as one of us was suspicious and it rattled. Tftc

Peace love pi and I headed out and about today to grab a few. We thought it was going to be cold, but it was a beautiful morning. I have this crazy flirtation with finding all the traditionals within a 10 mile radius. We started at a southern spot and started working our way north. Both of us were on it, and we wound up finding a lot of caches that had previous DNFs. We searched for a bit before peace love pi came up with the goods and we both had a good laugh over it. Thanks for the smiley!

Out enjoying this surprisingly warm day with lasouthpaw. Overlooked this one initially, but went back to the hint and voila. TFTC! All is well with this cache.

Cache log was soaked. Added new “write in rain” log and returned cache to it’s hiding place. I have heard of this winery but didn’t know where it was. Thanks!

Thought I'd give this one a try since it was found not too long ago. Searched around for quite a while then I spotted it! Hope the muggles across the street enjoying their wine didn't pay too much attention to me! TFTH SL

After seeing the difficulty and reading previous logs, I didn't think I would find this one. But I got pretty lucky and stamped my name just below yamagypsy. Clever. Tftc!

While waiting for my boyfriend to get off work I looked up nearby caches. 250 feet from the office, perfect! Finished up just as I see his truck getting ready to turn into the yard. He smiled and shook his head. Lol, still gets amazed I can find a cache anywhere! Tftc!

Will go by and check on this today. It is still there and still ready to be discovered.

Beer or wine it is all the same, something to enjoy with friends.

Stopped in for a few hours today to sample Colorado wines.

Wasn’t able to find cache. Didn’t spot any goats today.

To the barrel tasting across the street with my XYL. Great dinner, and the 17 Zinfandel is excellent, even this early. Won a free bottle (pick up after it's bottled; it's still in the barrel at this time). We looked long for the cache, and didn't find it. Did have a friendly goat and it's larger meadow mates come watch. They offered no useful advice, wouldn't even point a hoof in the general direction of the cache to help. This is a dnf, but thanks for the hunt once again.

Kind of easy if you follow the hint or name TFTC SL

Yes. Finally. Duh. (I wasn’t gonna stick my hand down in that stump anyway!)
Thanks for getting me re-focused...and another excuse to have lunch across the street. TFTC

I checked on this cache yesterday and was shocked to see the old stump that was there had been totally ripped apart. The clue "don't get stumped" was intended to help you realize the cache was not in the stump. Those who worked of the theme of the cache had better success. The cache is still in its hiding spot waiting to be discovered. I'm upping the difficulty level to 3.5. Happy caching

Stump is disrupted should verify and our fix this cache please

A year later and still no luck with this one...and I even brought 2 muggles to help poke around for the cache. We went across the street and have a great lunch and free wine tasting. Fabulous! I'll try again next year when I return to this area.
