Geocache Description:

Here's a micro next to the old Deport jail, which is also called a "calaboose". You'd need a pen to sign the log and please be sure to screw the cap back on securely when you're done so the next cacher will find a nice, dry log just like you did. Thanks!

Deport has a nice little downtown area with this replica(?) of the town's original jail and a well maintained park behind the VFW. It's hard to imagine spending any time at all in that tiny little building especially if it was cold or raining. We sure treat our prisoners better today.

More information on the town of Deport can be found in the Handbook of Texas Online

The hint is a total spoiler so only use it if you're stumped.
