Geocache Description:

You're looking for a clear plastic container a little bigger than a film canister. It's a P&G so don't go getting yourself all muddy down in the bayou, OK?

Houston is often called "Bayou City". Buffalo Bayou is the biggie on the west side of town - it is in fact the defining point for the "North" and "South" designation on many streets. As a west side Houstonian, you know without really thinking about it that there is a bridge across the bayou on the major north/south streets - Eldridge, Dairy Ashford, Gessner, Voss, etc.

But there is a bridge across the bayou that I'm willing to bet you don't know about. It's owned by the city of Houston, but you've never seen it and, until now, you had no reason to. If you're in a canoe you can enjoy the "rapids" just downstream, or if you're really, really wealthy you can own a gated home on the south side of the bayou. If you're not, the bridge is the "Farther Point" you'll get to go.

I've added the "handicapped" attribute because I could get to the cache in my chair, but I wouldn't be able to reach the cache while sitting in my chair unless I used a grabbing device.

The hint WILL give away the find so don't read it unless you want the surprise ruined!
