A Legacy Cache sponsored by Clicsparky
This one is for all those who work hard in keeping our power on
24 /7
Recently I had to spend a day with no power. Every time I walked
into a room I would reach for the light switch and turn it on just
to be reminded again that the power was still out.
So, what would life be like when you have no power, no TV, no
lights, no heat or AC, no fridge or freezer to keep food from
spoiling, no cordless phones, no dishwasher (unless you have kids)
When your car ran out of gas you would be walking because there is
no power to run the gas pumps. No internet, no more caching.
One would need to make a lot of changes to how we live our lives
today.
Thanks to all those that put in overtime and work many hours so
we can have the luxury of having power there when ever we want
it.
This cache is part of the Legacy Trail produced by the Canadian
Badlands Geocaching Association for the Best of the Bad Mega
Event.
The Legacy Trail
The Legacy Trail is a collection of geocaches that circles its
way over 100 miles on country roads traversing some of the most
scenic and spectacular landscape in this part of the Canadian
Badlands. A large number of caches in a variety of types, sizes and
difficulty are placed on the Trail. Every town, village and hamlet
in the Canadian Badlands has its own cache. Some caches were named
after local historic events and people, as well as celebrities who
grew up in this area. Some caches were sponsored by geocachers who
attended the Best of the Bad Mega Event. The Legacy Trail was
produced by the Canadian Badlands Geocaching Association for the
Best of the Bad Mega Event.
The Canadian Badlands
The Canadian Badlands in Alberta are like no other place on
earth, home to the world's most extensive dinosaur bonebeds,
badlands and hoodoos, and a world-class museum that shelters a 75
million-year-old legacy. The region is rich in culturally and
historically significant sites that tell the story of the First
Nations people and early settlers, and of a complex and diverse
modern society that is still deeply rooted in the spirit of the
frontier.
