Geocache Description:

This is a quick P&G. A word of warning: the road can be busy at times, particularly during the morning and evening commutes, so PLEASE be very careful in your search.

We have totally enjoyed all the wonderful caches others have set out.  We feel it is our turn to give back.  Video gaming was in its infancy when we were young adults, and we decided to pay homage to those, now archaic, technological wonders.


Breakout was one of the earliest Atari games for home units.  Wikipedia describes the game, “a layer of bricks lines the top third of the screen. A ball travels across the screen, bouncing off the top and side walls of the screen. When a brick is hit, the ball bounces away and the brick is destroyed. The player loses a turn when the ball touches the bottom of the screen. To prevent this from happening, the player has a movable paddle to bounce the ball upward, keeping it in play.”
Congratulations to Eric and Virginia for FTF...
