erycka & wichie: Sadly we inform that we have decided to archive Cape Cod Towns series. [:(]
We are glad we were able to get so many people from so many places to go all around the Cape and more trilled every time we got a log from the final one telling us how much they love it. It was a hard decision but after many reasoning we conclude we have to let go. We will leave the final active for a reasonable time for all the people who already started it and were missing few clues and also for those who didn't but want to get an easy smiley. See the attached picture and look for the clue you might be missing. Feel free to contact us if any question! Thanks for all the smiles you put on our faces visiting and enjoying this series!
Happy Caching!
Erika & Wilfredo (erycka & wichie) [:D]

Admin: We have removed the containers where they were still available.

Geocache Description:

A CACHING SERIES THAT COVERS ALL THE CAPE

This is one of 14 caches placed along Cape Cod – one on
each town.

Here you don’t only get a smiley but you also get one number for
the final town cache which will be released once all 14 are
published. Make sure you take note of that number and its position
because you will need it to go to the FINAL one. Although some of
the numbers may be easy to “guess”, we encourage you to do them all
before going for the 15th town to keep up the fun. They will be
posted in a random order and will be added to a Bookmark listing as
they are being published. So stay tuned, your town may be next.

Cape Cod has many different facets. Each town on the
Cape has something unique to offer in the way of natural beauty,
history, the arts and in entertainment.

A little bit of history of TRURO

The town of Truro has had several different names since it was settled in 1697. Originally it was known as Payomet or Pamet after the Native Americans who lived there; for a while in 1705 it was referred to as Dangerfield due to all the offshore sailing accidents. In 1709 the name "Truroe" was finally settled on, being named after a Cornish town which it resembled. Whaling, cod fishing and ship building were the principal industries. The harbor was filled with activity until the mid 1800's when heavy winds and tides combined to fill in the once-active harbor.
