Thanks for the response Nicolo. I actually did not send an e-mail directly to the owner. I'm under the impression that all logs are e-mailed straight to the cache owner (as mine are) so I assume the cache owner will receive an e-mail notification with what I wrote in my log.<br><br>Yes, LaRobley's board is very well done. I'll post there as well if anyone would rather reply on a threaded board.

It's been in place for a couple years and has been found by a lot of cachers. I went to the cache on Saturday and a man who lived in the subdivision with his backyard toward the cache site began going nuts and yelling and such while I was signing the log. He was threatening me with calling the Sherriff and telling me I was on private property etc. I attempted to talk to him about it, but he was not willing.<o:p></o:p></span></font></div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <o:p></o:p></span></font></div> </div> <div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I had decided that this was a first time deal and I was going to request that the owner move or archive the cache since it wasn't welcome. When I got home, I was really surprised to see that this neighbor situation has been an ongoing issue for over a year and that the cache owner has called the police on the neighbor (over the issue of wether this is a public hiking trail, etc).<o:p></o:p></span></font></div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <o:p></o:p></span></font></div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I still requested that this cache be archived.
