PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS PART II

For the past several weeks I have been working on a more difficult cache,  Denmar Micro GC1DV2Y 
This is a micro (very small) cache and is listed as a three difficulty--that means it might take a substantial amount of time to find it.  I had read the clue and worked diligently at finding the cache, examining where I thought the cache should be located,  with no success whatsoever.  Finally, on the way home from  the second failed search, I realized I was searching where I thought the cache should be located, instead of putting aside my preconceived notions and looking at things differently--in other words looking where it was actually hidden, instead of where I thought it should be hidden.

Like I posted in the cache log, it took me two hours and three minutes to find the cache.  Two hours of following my preconceived notions and then yesterday three minutes to find where it actually had been hidden. 


I really enjoyed making the find.
