Geocache Description:

Virtually a must site to see when in the area. Read the poem and take a quiz to verify that you really did pay a visit. Don't give away info to others in your log of the visit.

Its a virtual cache. Take nothing leave nothing.* But stop and visit and take pictures to post.

* There is a tradition among some cachers to let travel bugs in ther keeping stop here for a "VISIT" - to mark their passage in town - and/or to be traded to other cachers in a meeting here. But, at no time are the travel bugs physically placed in any container or part of the cache. They are only here virtually (electronically) for a short time. Usually no more than a few hours - the time it takes for cachers to get back to their computers and do their logs. So don't expect to actually find travel bugs at this virtual cache. But feel free to join in the tradition with bugs in your company.

The main purpose of the cache is to call your attention to one of Vernal's many interesting features. Please email me with the answers. Don't post them in your log even if encrypted.

Tail Tale Signs

A place to stop............................And take a rest
And pass a..............................Simple little test
From near and far.........................And far and near
Travelers can stand................Back near the rear
Back at the rear..........................Not near the feet
Watch out for traffic..................On the street
Take a picture...............................If you'd like
Of little bugs...........................That like to hike
Mark their place..........................Along the trail
Let them sit.............................Upon the tail
Then move along.....................Don't linger here
Extermination's...........................A real fear
Or perhaps.............................Just stop and see
This virtual 'bug'......................Big as a tree
His visit here..................................Will last and last
He comes along......................From distant past
Then tell the tale........................Of you and yours
Your passing here....................Your travel tours
Now... a challenge.......................You must meet
Look up and down..................The busy street
Email me words.............................I need just three
Most anything...........................On signs you see
Look up and down........................And all about
Confirm your stay..............................Beyond all doubt.
