Geocache Description:


Since our country was built on religious ideals, it is only right that our Governor’s tour stop for some spiritual healing! Although this is not on the grounds of the Tolentine Monastery, you can “park” close by.
I have lived in this community for several years and just recently found some interesting history about the Monastery. Go to (visit link) to learn more about St. Nicholas and the Tolentine Order.

*********************************************************
This is part of the Governor’s Tour:
My son Jordie and I love geocaching so much we decided to create a series of caches along Governors Highway that we are calling “The Governors Tour”. They are all mostly very easy. But to find the final cache you will need to visit each cache along the tour from stop #1 thru stop #9. At the top of each log is written a piece of the coordinates for the final cache.
For example: Log 1=N 41? XX.XXX
W XXX? XX.XXX

Log 2 will show you the next two numbers in the top coordinate, and Log 3 will show the next two numbers, and so on. By the time you get to the ninth stop on the Governors Tour, you will have the complete coordinates for the final cache. Pay close attention to the titles of each stop. They will give you a valuable clue. The first one to find the final cache gets a dollar! Enjoy!

Since most of these are micros, please bring your own writing utensil/pencil (BYOP)!

Don’t forget to write down the coordinate numbers and sign the log. (BYOP)!
