Geocache Description:

Cache is located in a cool historical spot with close parking. Could be a cache n dash, but you might want to take a look at all the neat stuff in the windows across the street.

I have always loved this Old Orenco area and thought it really needed a cache! I figured I would be able to find a bunch of information about it online, but there surprisingly wasn't much. This was one of the only site I could find: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orenco,_Oregon I was especially hoping to find more information on the old store, so if you know anything about it, please post it in your log! Cache is a camo'd vitamin bottle with a push and twist lid. It is starting out with a log and some small swag. BYOP. Congrats to upisnorth for a close call FTF with Youdad at his heels! NOTE: Sounds like the store owner now knows about the cache and is having lots of fun with it. In fact you might have to tell the to "hush" if you want to find it on your own! For the record, I had never seen a single store here for years when I placed the cache, but now it sounds like there are plans to do something with it! There is also a sign on the side of the building with more history if you want to check it out!
