Located at the old Public Waterworks. Cache might be too small for some travel bugs.....
Elongated Penny theme, or pressed coins.
Please stick to the theme! If there are any avid collectors out there who don't want to come and find the cache, email me and I'll see if we can try a trade.

This is a beautiful place with picnic tables and a view of Tashmoo. Easily accessable by boat. There are plays and performances very often right near cache...along road down to the water.

Cache is located at the old Public Waterworks, easily accessable from State Road or from Lake Tashmoo. If coming by car, please follow all of the parking and/or no parking signs. There is a parking lot! Near the entrance to the Waterworks is a scenic overpass with a very pretty view. I highly suggest walking all the way out to the herring run and harbor. Look at the boats, geese and sunset.

Coordinates could be as much as 40' off, so if you could, email me a better reading.

A little help for the searchers:
Multiply the number of lighthouse on Martha's Vineyard times three to get the distance from the water to the cache. Ben Franklin's discovery with a kite and key hit this tree.

This was a nice spot, even on a cold, drizzly, windy day. Good theme for a cache! We have a small collection of squished pennies but didn't bring any to trade--it was fun looking through the ones in here. Lots of mud near GZ but we continued on to look at the herring run. TNLNSL, TFTC!

Kinda muddy and lots of goose poop, but found the cache with no trouble. It's much quieter here than it was when I did the roadside cache in July. SL, TFTC.
