Geocache Description:




The Grinch hated Christmas! No one quite knows the reason. Was his head not screwed on right? Were his shoes too tight? No. The most likely reason of all may have been that his heart was two sizes too small.
Did you ever feel like the Grinch? No I hope not. No I don't think so.


Well if your heart is too small this Christmas remember the Grinch.

Because he, the Grinch, slid down the chimney and what did he do? He stole the Who's presents. He stole the Pop guns! And bicycles! Roller skates! Drums! Checkerboards! Tricycles! Popcorn! And plums! I think he even stole there I-Pods, Wii's, Smartphones and over priced luxury automobiles.

Then the Grinch slunk to the other Who's houses and he stole this and that and that and this. And when the Grinch was done with all the Who's houses he loaded up his 2-ton pickup truck and drove to the top of Texter Mountain. Then he waited and waited because he knew what he'd hear. The Who's would be waking to find that no Christmas was coming. They would cry they would weep. There would be no singing, no cheer. Because this year Christmas was NOT coming. This year that clear.

Do you know the rest of the story? I think you do.

Because Christmas is not about ribbons! It's not about tags! It's not about packages, boxes or bags! Christmas! Christmas means a little bit more!

So I give to you this Christmas, a gift of a cache.
You can open at any time.
Or you can leave right now and make a mad dash.
Whatever you decide, take the kiddos along.
For I've left a little stash.
For the kiddos you silly, not you.

Merry Christmas!
