Geocache Description:



A quick and relatively easy park, grab and go type micro cache.

A horseshoe is a fabricated product, normally made of metal, although sometimes made partially or wholly of modern synthetic materials, designed to protect a horse's hoof from wear. Shoes are attached on the palmar surface of the hooves, usually nailed through the insensitive hoof wall that is anatomically akin to the human toenail, though much larger and thicker. However, there are many cases where shoes are sometimes glued.


Horseshoes are available in a wide variety of materials and styles, developed for different types of horse and for the work they do. The most common materials are steel and aluminum. Steel tends to be preferred in sports where a strong, long-wearing shoe is needed, such as polo and show jumping. Aluminum shoes are lighter, making them common in horse racing, where a lighter shoe is desired; and often facilitate certain types of desired movement, and so are favored in the discipline of dressage.

When kept as a talisman, a horseshoe is said to bring goodluck. Many believe that to hang it with the ends pointing upwards is good luck as it acts as a storage container of sorts for any good luck that happens to be floating by. Whereas to hang it with the ends pointing down, is bad luck as all the good luck will fall out.  Yet many others believe that the shoe should be hung the other way, as it will then release its luck to the people around it.  Whatever you may think or believe may you have good luck in finding and logging this cache.




Please bring your own pen or pencil.
Beware of the security muggle often see parked nearby.
Take care of resident muggles driving or walking by.

GOOD LUCK !
