Geocache Description:

The final location for this cache is easy to get to (no need to go into the weeds). The solution that tells you where that is might be a little more difficult.

After 2 years in the game, we have finally managed to place our own cache. We hope that there are many who are able to enjoy it!

The posted coordinates are not where the cache is located (Icky place)!!
We placed a Travel Bug in the cache that has some interesting history. If you’re the FTF, move it along!
The cache also contains some fun trinkets for the kids to trade.

We would love some feedback regarding the difficulty rating of this cache. If we see that it is not rated properly, we will make adjustments. If you need a hint, please ask!
