Geocache Description:

The Original Sparky is my beloved Grandpa, whose nickname I now use. This cache is located near a cemetary flat headstone of my Grandpa. My cache is to celebrate his memory.

This cache is located in Sunset Hills Cemetary. As my son and I were visiting Grandpa we spied a group of 2 trees & 2 bushes off to the right, 6 graves away & thought that would be a perfect place to stash a cache. My son crawled under the back bush & hung our cache in the middle of it. I had to get on my hands & knees to see where he put it. He did a great job, it's hard to see. Inside the metal canister is an Epipen containter with a log & writing tool. Inside the larger container is room for small swag, I have a suggestion below. Every Christmas my Grandpa put lottery tickets in our stockings, and he always gave me money (his spare change), sometimes by dropping money behind him in a store when I was walking behind him so my Grandma wouldn't see LOL! So I am continuing his tradition with this cache for swag. There is a $2.00 instant scratch off lottery ticket & a $1.00 bill in the cache for the FTF. It would be fun to keep up the tradition of spare change (or lottery tickets) as swag. Let me know if you win! Congrats to Geo-Trails & Kelcutah for the FTF!!! Congrats also to mmc881 for getting the FTF Prize & winning $4.00 from the lottery ticket, (thank you for leaving your spare change too) Yay!!! Note: The coords are only for the headstone, not the actual cache container. Since the cache is in a cemetary, please follow cemetary rules, hours, and most importantly be respectful.
