Geocache Description:

A little camoed lock and lock with a few small items for trade. Bring your on pencil.

This was an impulse placement when we were coming back from grabbing the "Hatfields and McCoys" cache. When we stopped and looked around we found "Lonesome Johnnie" and noticed how unusual it seemed. Tell me if you have seen anything like this before when you find the cache. We used a Gramin E Trex Vista to make the hide but the coordinates are probably not necessary if you read the hint when you get close. Just walk past Lonesome Johnnie and stay on this side of the fence. DO NOT CROSS THE FENCE TOWARD THE RAILROAD TRACK no matter waht your GPS says. We left several smaller trade items which include three of my favorite coins: The New American Gold Dollar, a 1943 Steel Penny (from the war year when we could not spare copper) and a 1/2 Kroner coin that our exchange daughter from Norway gave us when we visited. The hint is probably a spoiler so don't read it if you want a challenge. Once again let me know if you have seen a "Lonesome Johnnie" situation before.
