Geocache Description:

This geocache was placed to be part of the Taos Centennial Event - Taos has a Secret.  A nano cache on a quiet road next to the Taos main road. Please use stealth and some common sense.... You can park right next to the cache if you can figure it out.



This cache was part of the VERY FIRST TAOS GEOCACHING EVENT - TAOS HAS A SECRET (GC3B459) and part of the New Mexico Centennial sponsored by the Great State of New Mexico!

This event had a 23 page document that went along with the caching event. It includes a brief history of the caching area and how each cache fit into the event.

And then There was Carroll Dwier (August 1884 to November 1969) who was the 2nd husband to my wife’s great grandmother. Perhaps he can help us uncover the naja.

 
Centennial Date Jan. 23, 1912: Gov. W.C. McDonald left the capital this afternoon in a motor car accompanied by Mrs. McDonald for the Pueblo of San Ildefonso where they will witness the Buffalo Dance. The visit is made on the invitation of the newly elected governor of the pueblo, Juan Rey Martinez, who is inaugurated today. 
 
George M. Neel and Carroll R. Dwire have found a new road from Taos to the Rio Grande and Ojo Caliente. They followed Taos Creek at its junction with the Rio Grande, easily forded the water and saved 20 miles in the journey to Ojo Caliente. The proposed road has an easy grade. The bridge on this road is called the John Dunn Bridge.  John and Carroll were good friends.

Kathleen’s mother would take Carroll to the doctor’s office every Tuesday for shots. While she waited in the car patiently with crying kids, Carroll would be getting his shots. It wasn’t until years later that we found out that Carroll would go in the doctors office and out into the hall and then up the stairs to the saloon. When busted, he never got a ride into town again. He died a broken man.
