| Anybody know where I can get a large old inexpensive cooler or something eaually large to use for a cache container? I've been looking on Craigslist and haven't seen much. |

It doesn't hold water. That for sure would have been worth an 8th misdemeanor. |

Is that why they decided to not pursue the charges? Because the case didn't hold water?

Back on topic, garage sales are a great idea for stuff like that. Of course there might be more available early and late in the season, rather than in the middle... |

| Yes, I was thinking of checking some garage sales. It just isn't one of my favorite things to do. I think I'll stop at the goodwill on my way home from work sometime, too. That coffin thing is never going to die, is it? |

Does it have to be a cooler? Could you use a plastic storage bin instead? Coolers aren't always watertight so a storage bin might be easier to find. _________________ Tupperware doesn't belong in the kitchen! |

| I have one for you. The reason we don't use it for our cooler anymore is because the hinge is broken. Since we live so close, drop me a line if you want it. |
