Geocache Description:

A small Cache on a rural country road west of Gilroy. There is only room for very small trade items. Please bring your own pen.

I recently did the windmill cache near the Hunting Hollow entrance to Coe Park. It reminded me how much I enjoyed these windmills as a very young child. I lived in a small rural town in eastern Colorado. My next door neighbor, Art, had a farm which I often visited. The prominent feature I remember on Art's farm was the "The Aeromotor, Chicago" windmill. These had to be the original "green Machines" as no electricity is required! Art's windmill pumped water into a circular reservoir for his livestock. I still remember the "clankity clank" rhythmic sound the pump shaft made as long as the wind was blowing. This cache will be easy for most experienced geocachers but has decent camo so it should not be easily muggled. There is no need to go onto private property to access this cache. ENJOY!
