Geocache Description:

"You Can't Roller Skate __ _ _______ ____" was a Top 40 hit for Oklahoma singer/songwriter Roger Miller in 1966. If you can complete the lyric, you've got a leg up on solving the theme of this Lawton cache run. All 12 caches are micros or smaller. High muggle factor at most locations, so use extreme stealth.

This was originally conceived to be a single multi-cache, but the more we looked, the more locations we found. I don't know anyone who's got the patience for a 12-part multi-cache, so we did it this way. The series was placed for the enjoyment of the SouthWest Area Geocachers (SWAG) and the Texoma Geocaching Assn. (ToGA) when they gathered for a meeting in Lawton.

At this stop, you're looking for a nano. Very high muggle factor during the week.

Trivia: The nearby statue was purchased used for $5K by private citizens and was donated to the City of Lawton. It originally faced the building, but motorists driving by complained about the view they had of the statue. After the city switched it, workers in the building started complaining about the view. It just goes to show you can't please everyone. More trivia: This building is more than a century old. It's one of two caches in this run that are on the National Register of Historic Places.

Congratulations to cwby416 for the FTF!
