Geocache Description:

A fairly easy drive-by cache. There is a good grass area to park right beside the cache site. Watch the kids as it can be a busy road!

In the spring, a regular thing to do in the Buckoboy household, is to make Elderflower Cordial.
These lovely bunches of white flowers, when mixed with the right quantity of other ingredients, make a refreshing natural and healthy summer drink.
As you drive / get near the cache site, you will notice a number of Elderberry trees. It is under one such tree, you will find a large 5 litre camo painted container.
When first placed, the cache contained:
Salad Servers
Swim bag
2 Pencil Sharpeners
Kids Baggage Label
Luv You Travel Bug
Ice Rose GeoCoin
Coffee GeoCoin
Stash note, pencil, sharpener and logbook
