He wants to visit them in person STARTING IN MAINE, making ONLY ONE STOP IN EACH STATE, down the East Coast of the US to Florida. Then across the Gulf Coast to Texas; over to California and up to Alaska. His last visit will be to Hawaii. Upon return to Massachusetts, he will be placed in the hands of his owner - Cache Hound! who is located in Southeastern Massachusetts and dropped in a local cache (near Interstate Rt 195). PLEASE FILL IN THE ATTACHED LOG.

About This Item

Old Salt - August 2004

Old Salt has many, many years experience as a sea captain. I don't remember where I first acquired him, but he has traveled all over the world and has seen many things. Now, what he wants to do before he retires, is to visit all of the US states that have ocean boundaries (23 of them). He wants to visit them in person, making ONLY ONE STOP IN EACH STATE, starting in Maine, down the East Coast of the US to Florida. Then across the Gulf Coast to Texas (Florida only needs to be logged one time); over to California and up to Alaska. His last visit will be to Hawaii. After Hawaii, he wants to return to his owner anywhere in either RHODE ISLAND or SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS for some much-needed R&R (Rest and Refurbishment). All of the caches that he stays in along the way must have an ocean border.
When Old Salt returns to Massachusetts, he will be picked up by his owner, Cache Hound! for further adventures.

There was no attached log to Old Salt, so we are logging on the website instead. We will take him to OREGON, only the most beautiful coast in the entire US! 😁 We are visiting the Oregon Coast in October and will drop him in a cache there.
