Geocache Description:

Located just off the corridor x interstate at the temporary end .Easy Find, Easy terrain. Swap or drop your bugs and coins

On a much needed highway
Temporary signs in the air
Warm smell of pine trees
Rising up thru the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a flashing light
My tags grew heavy as I took a glance
We stopped for the find

We stepped out of the car door
And the GPS wailed
I was thinking to myself this could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lifted the cache lid and she showed me the way
There were voices on the corridor X
I thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel Alabama
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely space
Plenty of room at the Hotel Alabama
Any time of year
You can find it here

They come by Jeep or F150
Some by Mercedes-Benz
They got a lot of pretty pretty toys
We call friends
How they danced at the first find
Sweet summers sweat
Some brought coins to remember
Some to forget

Someone called out with laughter
I just made the find
The other said we haven’t had this much fun
Since I 59
Still other voices were calling from far away
Hurry up and sign the log
So we can be on our way

Welcome to the Hotel Alabama
Such a lovely place, such a lovely space
They’re living it up at the Hotel Alabama
What a nice surprise
Bring your Bugs on by

There are no mirrors on the ceiling
No champagne on ice
We are all just visitors here
With a tracking device
As the cachers scramble
They gather before they feast
They grab us with their feely hands
Some headed north others headed east
Last thing I remember I was headed for the car door
Headed to another cache site
I’ve never been before
“Relax” said the nice man we’re logging you to receive
The miles you really need
At the Hotel Alabama
You can check out anytime you like
But until someone gets you
You can never leave
Living a bugs life at the Hotel Alabama
