Geocache Description:


!!!!! CONGRATS TO LINCOLN B. FOR BEING THE FIRST TO FIND!!!!! On May 3rd, 1999, an F-4 monster tornado wiped out the heart of the city of Haysville, south of Wichita. The tornado developed in the rural area south of the town and moved through the center of the business district. The storm left a swath of damage from Haysville to South Wichita and killed six people. This cache is the first of 3 that is in remembrance of that great storm and the folks that lost their lives and property. This is the site of the Palmer Dentist office. For many years I enjoyed coming here (as much as one can when visiting the dentist) because it was so unique. The original building was an old school house. As you sat waiting for the dentist it was a pleasure to look out across the country side through the huge windows. As you can see it was pretty well torn up. That day my wife and I plus dogs huddled under my house just .25 miles away from the path of the tornado. To close for comfort. You are looking for a magnetic container. Careful, I saw a Red Herring near by!
