Geocache Description:


This cache is ** WINTER FRIENDLY ** ! Decode the long 'winter special' hint if you want to tromp thru the snow.

11/14/04 Maintenance check. Looks fine.

In tribute to the dying breed of waysides. We will miss you. Please go to Waysides Series for a complete listing of all the waysides in this series and an explanation.

One step up the evolutionary ladder from a wayside is a 'Rest Area'. Rest Areas have flush toilets and electricity!

This is a kid friendly cache. Parents can wait at a picnic table. No stealth is required. You can take the camo peanut butter container to a picnic table and play with some of the toys before returning it.

Initial cache contains toy car, bendable bug man and small glass sign.

I like to listen to WFCL AM (around 1400) when I travel this part of the road.

First find goes to Crazy Buzzard (and his Dad) from Neenah, WI on 6/19/04. Thanks!
