It's all about the Benjamins, baby.

Years ago, Ben Franks hotdog joints were all over the place... okay, that's an exaggeration, but there was one in downtown San Francisco and one in South City off El Camino that I used to frequent. Eventually, hotdog specific restaurants went the way of the dodo, and only one Ben Franks (that I know of) remained. Ben Franks No 2, as Googlemaps knows it, is in Redwood City just off El Camino.

This park and grab box is hidden just outside of the parking lot, right by the exit. You'll want to look low to the ground, close to the fence, on the right side of the parking lot exit for a smallish letterbox. This is a geocache type hide, so it's kinda tricky, and please please be careful of muggle eyes. Extreme stealth is required to get this box. It's fully accessible from the sidewalk, and you need not enter the parking or premises if you don't want to (or you don't have to step in more than a few steps to find this urban hide). Better yet, if you park your car inside, and maybe even grab a bite, you can find the box, bring it back to the car, do what needs to be done, and then return it when no one is around for extreme stealth!

Please be aware of how I set it all up inside the container and return it the same way as found. Also, please return the entire box exactly as found so that it doesn't stand out to people walking by.

Recommended color: Black.
Recommended hotdog: Polish (with only mustard)
