Geocache Description:

Congrats to mzairboy on First To Find

Pennsylvania Dutch Hex Signs

While hex signs, in all likelihood, were originally displayed only for aesthetic purposes or to emphasize the rich heritage of their creators' home country, they have come to be imbued, both by Pennsylvania residents and visiting tourists, with mystical, almost magical powers and some see them as a useful tool for warding off evil spirits, lightning, and various other negative circumstances.




Double Headed Eagle

The double eagle in this sign stands for strength and courage. The heart is laced for love in marriage and the three tulips, known as the Trinity Tulips symbolize faith, hope and charity.
