Poor Dobbsy tried to make his stake around here but ended up as part of the real estate. His stone was inscribed with the words:

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
If the panthers don't get you
The banditos must.

After losing everything in a wind storm his pardners tried starting a badger farm near here. They thought there would be a market in pet badgers until one night an angry crowd of locals showed up on their door step shouting "Badgers! Badgers! We don't need no stinking badgers!" I think that was Sarah Madre's family.

Actually the area around here is fun to drive around in and the houses are interesting to look at. Plus there are other caches to grab near here too.

FTF are four scatchers
STF one scatcher
bouncy balls
Play Dough
Stainless steel Go-cart bolts
and other swag

Leaned over the K-rails to spot this one. The concrete barriers are here to protect the neighborhood from mud slides because of the fires last year, and should be up for about two more years.

So Frank C Dobbs was a badger rancher? I had always thought there was good money in that. I guess I'll have to pursue alpaca farming instead... or maybe ostriches! TFTC
