Just another Enon Hide.
Home of my new geocoin for my 1000th find! The
coin is not in the cache! This is its virtual home!!
update 12/4/07...Ok I might be archiving
this hide as the carriage which was here as a distractor has
been sold. There isn't much left here to look at. So if you
have a DNF make sure you come and get it before its
archived
Every since I started geocaching I have said there
needs to be a cache here. Well, today 11/26/06 there is a cache
here. You are looking for a micro container—of course! What else do
I hide? Right???
There is an item here at this location that has made me wonder for
years what it would have been like to have been on the Oregon
Trail. I just can’t imagine starting out from Independence,
Missouri in the spring and hoping that we arrive on the west coast
before winter sets in.
And many people had to travel a ways just to start their
adventure.

The history buffs out there can really add on to the misery of the
people while on this cruise across the country. I will let each
individual person research that by themselves. I am not too certain
people really looks at the history placed on the cache pages
anyhow.
I have to admit this cache is concealed rather well.
Please do not dismantle anything in the
immediate area!!!! Don’t hunt in the middle of the road… It
is not there. Its somewhere between the building and the sidewalk
and between the two parking areas! YOU DO NOT
NEED TO TAKE ANYTHING APART TO FIND THE CACHE. IT CAN BE SEEN IF
LOOKING IN THE PROPER ANGLE.
I upped the difficulty again today 12/3/06 due to
the presence of muggles on a rather frequent basis at this
location!! This is looking to be harder then I thought it was going
to be so I upped it to a 3.5
re-tested the coordinates 11/27/06 after
school
1st test 39*52.785 and 083*56.053
2nd test 39*52.787 and 083*56.054
