Geocache Description:

Let's try this again.


This is the replacement location for the cache by the same name. Lots of time has passed since the original cache was placed, and Brady has actually been seen searching for and finding micros (There's a 12 step program for this).

A cache dedicated to givers.
All of us have people around us who inspire us, motivate us, and help us to grow as individuals. This cache series is dedicated to the family and friends, the loved ones in our lives. In each case, I will encourage you to include in your logs information about your family and friends and what makes them special to you.
This cache is dedicated to a couple, a geocaching husband and father and a non- geocaching wife and mother. Everyone knows someone who is a giver. Not necessarily a giver of wealth or possessions, but something more valuable. They give of themselves. For this couple, giving in this manner seems to be a way of life. Whether it’s sharing watercraft at a party, sharing time while geocaching, or sharing the ultimate gift, life through the donation of a kidney. That makes this couple truly special.
For this cache, please relate a story about a person or people you know who also fit into the elite group of people who give of themselves.
The cache is located in Commons Ford Park. The park is open from 12:00 noon to 6:00 P.M. Tuesday – Sunday. The park is closed on Mondays. You can park at N30 20.245 W97 53.588 and find the trailhead at N30 20.212 W97 53.583. You can follow the trail to the small waterfall. The cache may be unavailable from this trailhead after heavy rains, but the area would be well worth visiting anyway. It may be possible to get the cache during wet weather from the trailhead at N30 20.283 W97 53.397, but it may require a little more bushwhacking. This is a wonderful location. While here, I enjoyed listening to the breeze rustle the grass near the creek, and there was some water in the creek.
You may want to include a camera for this cache. The view from here is quite nice. You are now looking for a 50 caliber ammo can. I set the terrain at 3.5 because the last 60 feet is up a loose gravel slope.
