Geocache Description:

Marco is located near an area that occasionally transforms into a mini "used car lot". In the winter it is more commonly used for those of us that are not comfortable driving down the hills in icy conditions, we leave our cars here instead of our homes...these spaces are coveted by us chickens. The cache is located in an area where you will need foot protection and some traction. About 20' from parking.

Be sure to visit the cache "POLO"....down the street. Busy road so keep your eye out for MUGGLES!!!

SOME FUN HISTORY THAT INSPIRED THESE CACHES.... Marco Polo...
This most popular of swimming games owes it's name to the Venetian explorer of the late 1200s and early 1300s whose travels to China, India and other parts of Asia helped to introduce the "mysterious Orient" to Western Europe.
****Legend says that Marco Polo did not know where he was going when he first set out on his travels- hence the game's name.*******...Just like Geocaching!!!!!!!

To go with the game theme we started this cache with some game SWAG: -- A travel chess/checker game magnetized --Pen Twister (yes, IN a pen!) Also, for the FTF we added a golden dollar.
We will be starting off a new Geocoin here in remembrance of our grandpa---our Nutcracker TB!! We wish it well on it's travels, our fingers are crossed!!

ENJOY MARCO POLO!!!!!!


Congratulations to KJ tha Hunter and 2Dad for the FTF!!!!!
