Geocache Description:


DO NOT TRY TO ACCESS THIS ONE FROM NEW CIRCLE ROAD!!!!
The first airport serving Lexington was located in this neighborhood; the hanger was located at what is now Boiling Springs Drive. It opened in the summer of 1927 with World War I ace Ted Kincannon as manager. Charles A. Lindbergh made arrangements with Kincannon to land here on March 28, 1928, with the stipulation that his arrival be kept secret. A 17 -year-old boy, Melvin Rhorer, was recruited to mark the field with a 100-foot limestone circle so it could be seen from the air. Melvin spent the night in the plane to guard it, while Lindbergh visited a friend, Dr. Scott D. Breckinridge. The secret leaked out, next morning close to 3,000 people watched the plane take off.
