This was left as a note on my Tamba cache....

We didn't visit this site. We ran out of daylight before we could get to
it. We did, however, find a small camoflage-colored paint can with the word
Tamba written on it at stage #3 of the Having a Ball geocache (GC20DC). Is
there a connection? Does this count as a find? Johnny & Eric, Greensburg, PA


This is the note that was left at Having a Ball Cache
We went on a geocaching vacation in Phoenix for one week. We thought that
it would be a great way to see Arizona and we were not disappointed. We
found 23 of the 28 caches that we attempted. It was great fun even when we
were not successful. We had some really great adventures and saw a lot of
rocks and thorns. We really owe a debt of gratitude to the geocaching
community in Arizona for some great cache locations. Thank You! This was our
last find of the trip and our third find of the day. We had a bit of a
strange experience with this one. We found #1, #2, and #3 easily enough but
we could not continue because it was starting to get dark and we realized
that there was no way we could make the hike to the final cache. The odd
thing is that we found two containers at #3. I don't mean for this log to be
a spoiler but there is no other way to explain. One of them was a tupperware
and the other was a small camoflage-colored paint can with the word Tamba
written on it. We wondered if this was supposed to be the Tamba geocache
which is supposed to be somewhere way out in the desert on the other side of
Wickenburg, 82.1 miles away! If so, the coordinates are way off! We hope
someone will offer us an explanation for this mystery. Anyhow, We left a
travel bug here at #3 since it was to be the final cache our trip. The goal
of this particular bug is to visit state high points but we had to settle
for a high point in a state capitol. We really hope that somebody will be
able to find him and send him on his way. We had great fun with this cache.
There were some really great views of Phoenix along the way. Thanks again.
