Geocache Description:

You will be looking for a cammoed waterproof matchstick container on this one cachers. It contains a log sheet so BYOP!

This cache is located in Natchitoches, La. behind the "Gingerbread House" also known as the Roque House. This French Colonial Cottage was built by a freed black slave named "Yves", but called "Pascale" in 1797. Constructed of Bousillage (Adobe) between angular and upright posts, it represents the earliest form of what is now known in Louisiana as "Creole" architecture. Later, Aubin Roque and his wife, Marie Philomene Metoyer, moved here from her fathers plantation, "Yucca", now named Melrose. She was the daughter of the legendary Augustine Metoyer, "Gens de Couleur Libres", of the lower Cane River country. The house was moved to this site from it'soriginal location near Isle Breville on Cane River Lake in 1967 by Museum Contents, Inc. While you are here feel free to check out all the many historic sites we have here and plenty of shopping, carriage rides, fishing, and lots of eating. Grab yourself a meatpie or two!! There is a Tourist Info Center at the top of the hill from this cache. Drop by and they can direct you in the way you need to go. If perhaps you see a mailman delivering mail, you can ask him for diretions also because that would be "Me"!! Have fun fellow cachers and Happy Hunting!!
