Geocache Description:

The Cache IS at the above coordinates. You Cannot log this as a "found" until you complete the challenge. 

You can log it as a note if you find it and sign the log, then change your note to a smiley once you meet the criteria. Any "found it" logs that haven't been substantiated will be deleted.

Any dates will count towards this challenge as long as you meet the criteria. 

Welcome to the Challenge of the Century: Places We Live. Your Challenge is to find 100 caches that have a city name in the title. Examples include - Indianapolis, Mooresville, Ft Wayne, Baraboo, Madison, Bloomington, etc.  

We all live somewhere...but does your town have its name attaced to a Cache?  Look for those -ville, -polis, -burgs, etc and start collecting the cache names. Any cache type, size, difficulty, terrain, or location will qualify for this challenge. Your qualifying caches can be from anywhere in the world. Please list your qualifying caches any way you see fit, as long as it includes the cache name (listed in the log below, link to a bookmark list, etc) This cache will require pencil or pen to make it official. 

There is ample parking for this one, you just have to look for it. Be careful as this cache is located next to a very busy state highway. 

Special thanks to Tank Hounds for allowing me to continue their series.  I got the idea for this when doing the I've Been Everywhere power series in Central Illinois.
