I don't know - it's one of those postage size parks at the end of a street in a nice neighborhood... we were geocaching and we got lots of looks while we were there (and not the good kinds of looks)...

I unfortunately don't think my name was in it at all - just my trail name (which is my last name - Mass - but I'm not sure that's readily apparent)

C'mon, people! You've got to give honest people a chance! If it's not screwed onto your body, put your name and address on it so when it gets lost people can get it back to you.

Back in my college days, somebody gave me an ID bracelet for my birthday. Back in the 70's, ID bracelets were popular for some reason. I kinda liked the thing and wore it all the time. One day I was at Daytona Beach and swimming in the surf about 30 yards offshore when I felt the thing come off. Apparently the clasp came loose what with the splashing and all. Anyhow, I felt around the bottom with my toes for a few minutes with no luck. It was gone.

A couple of years later I'm checking my mailbox and there's a package in it. I open it up and there's my ID bracelet. No note, no return address, nothing.

Oh, I almost forgot: I didn't live in Daytona Beach, I lived in Orlando, about an hour's drive away. And this was pre-internet. Somebody had to do some research to find my address.
