Holly's Tail Traditional Cache
tnphotobug: Ran a short maintenance run around town with my dad today. Yep, just as I had thought from all the DNF logs, narry a trace of this geocache could be found. Plus there's tons of poison ivy all around said tree. I'm going to archive this listing in order to open up space for other geocachers to hide a cache in this area.
Happy cache hiding!!

Once upon a time…
There was a dog who lived in Florida, and she needed a home. Her name was Holly, and she was a beautiful 2 year old Lab. There just so happened to be a family in Tennessee who wanted a dog, and when they heard of Holly they said, “We’ve got to get her!”
So drive, drive, drive that family did, all the way down to Florida. After they picked up Holly, they drove, drove, drove, all the way back to Tennessee. Holly was so excited and happy about her new family and home!
And it just so happened that one of those family members was a geocacher, tnphotobug by name. Of course, he had to introduce Holly to all the wonders of geocaching! She got so excited about geocaching, she woofed, “Let’s go out and hide a geocache!” tnphotobug couldn’t agree more. So they went out to Collegedale and searched and looked and looked and searched for a place to hide a geocache. But almost everywhere they looked, there was a geocache! Where could they hide a new one?
Finally, Holly had an idea. “How about over on the Greenway?” she woofed. “Lots of dogs go there.” So boy and dog went to the Greenway and looked for places to hide their geocache. Most of the Greenway was taken, but there was one spot that wasn’t so that’s where Holly and tnphotobug went. Holly got very excited when they arrived at that spot, because it was a very dog-friendly location! Her tail wagged. Carefully the geocacher and dog hid their cache, making sure to camouflage it well. They hoped that future finders would camouflage the cache just as well.
Before leaving the cache for good, they put a few items in the cache, such as pencils, the logbook in a bag, some toys, and even a few bags. They hoped that when geocachers came to find this cache they would not only sign the logbook and trade a few toys or trackables, but that those cachers would also take one of those bags and pick up any trash they saw while walking the Greenway.
As Holly and tnphotobug walked back to the car, they excitedly discussed what to call their new cache. tnphotobug finally came up with the winning suggestion: “Holly’s Tail”. In the description they would tell a story, or tale, of all the fun they had had hiding this cache, and being dog-themed, well, they just had to spell it “tail”.
Holly’s tail wagged even more.
