Geocache Description:

E.T. phone home. Log and F.T.T. M&M imprinted penny. As we have a habit, includes a bit of trivia in the long description.

Near an item that is harder to find than you think. (the item is hard to find, not the cache) These used to be all over the place, but modern electronics have made them nearly obsolete.

F.T.F trivia: The blockbuster movie E.T. made in 1982, used Reese's Pieces to lure the extra terrestrial. But the staring roll (of the candy) was first offered to Mars for M&M's. For what ever reason, they declined, but were soon to be kicking themselves when sales of Reese's Pieces soared with the movie release. Sure put a smile on Hershey's face!
