Found a Benchmark

In digging through the Geocaching website, I ran into the section on benchmark hunting.  I have known what benchmarks are for some years now, after seeing one of them on a sidewalk somewhere and looking up what it was, and I was intrigued when I saw that the benchmark database was available on the Geocaching site.

I took a look through the database and saw what looked to be an easy one within a mile or so of my job, so I took a quick look today on lunch break and found it.

Right on top of a sewer drain.

I'm not sure that I have the time to devote to this, but it was certainly neat to track down. There are a few more easy ones near home, and I'll see if I can't find them in the next few weeks, but some of the local ones have either never been found, or are on private property, so this is one of those things that I'm filing under "neat" but not "have to do".
