Geocache Description:


José Antonio Navarro (February 27, 1795 – January 13, 1871) developed a lengthy friendship with Stephen F. Austin and served as a leader in the Texas Revolution. During the 1830s Navarro represented Texas in the legislature of Coahuila y Tejas and in the federal Congress in Mexico City.

He signed the Texas Declaration of Independence in 1836 and became a member of the Republic of Texas Congress from Bexar County, Texas. Navarro participated in the failed Santa Fe Expedition of President Mirabeau B. Lamar and was briefly imprisoned there before escaping to Texas. In 1845 Navarro was instrumental in drafting the first state Constitution of Texas. He was twice elected to the Texas Senate before retiring from politics in 1849.

This will be a simple 3-stage multi cache all located within the boundaries of this small roadside park. Answer the questions at each stage and move on to the final which is a camoed pill bottle. Please rehide in the exact same spot with some natural cover to keep it from being discovered.
