MattressGnome: I can no longer fly out to DTW to maintain this cache, so it's the first of my 4 hides in this area to be archived. The others will survive much longer I hope!

Geocache Description:

This is a great place to watch the large 'Birds' that Romulus is known for land (daytime) and take off (nighttime). Ample parking is nearby at the 'Better Eastern' hotel chain, and the cache is relatively secluded.

A simple C&D for travelers and caching kids to find, that just happens to be directly under the flight path of aircraft landing and taking off from DTW. The cache is not accessible from the highway, and is not hidden on the highway fence, so it suitable for supervised junior cachers. Make the find, then wait a minute or two to see a 'Big Bird' streak through the sky!
