Geocache Description:

Micro tube cache. No pencil thing.

About 25,000 moons ago. Two young Indians were standing at this spot watching for mammoths in a thunder storm.

One Indian said to the other, "Ugh; I have this great idea! We will launch satellites into space on huge powerful rockets. These satellites will allow us to mark our positions and locate items on a map using a handheld GPS. We will turn it into a numbers game and call it 'Geocaching'. It will not cost us anything because the Federal Government and the Nation's Military will pay for it."

The second Indian looked at the first and said, "Ugh; Somewhere south of here a village is missing it's idiot."

The first Indian said, "Ugh; Yea it does sound crazy doesn't it."

And so the idea was forgotten for many moons to come.

The end.

PS; Ugh; A full moon comes about every 27.3 days so you should be able to figure out how many years 25,000 full moons would be. For extra credit (whatever that is) add the years in your log.
