Bartholomew Cubbins Traditional Cache

randallh: “But neither Bartholomew Cubbins, nor King Derwin himself,

nor anyone else in the Kingdom of Didd could ever explain how the

strange thing had happened. They only could say it just ‘happened to

happen’ and was not very likely to happen again.”

Goodbye Bartholomew!

Geocache Description:




“The Kingdom of Didd was ruled by King Derwin. His palace stood on the top of the mountain. From his balcony, he looked down over the houses of all his subjects - first, over the spires of the noblemen's castles, across the broad roofs of the rich men's mansions, then over the little houses of the townfolk, to the huts of the farmers far off in the fields.

“It was a mighty view and it made King Derwin feel mighty important.

”Far off in the fields, on the edge of the cranberry bog, stood the hut of the Cubbins family. From the small door Bartholemew looked across the huts of the farmers to the houses of the townsfolk, then to the rich men's mansions and the noblemen's castles, up to the great towering palace of the King. It was exactly the same view that King Derwin saw from his balcony, But Bartholemew saw it backward.

“It was a mighty view, but it made Bartholemew Cubbins feel mighty small.”

Dr Seuss

This cache has a “Mighty View” but you will be seeing it backwards. Do “Hey Top This!” if you want to see it from the king’s point of view.

In keeping with the theme, the cache is “mighty small.” Bring your own pen.
