It's been a fun ride, but we now have to archive.

Geocache Description:

8th in the VPS.


Martin Van Buren was the eighth VP and later the eighth President.  Huh?  Look it up, and you'll see how.  He was also the tenth US Secretary of State.  He grew up in New York speaking Dutch as his first language.  Van Buren married his childhood sweetheart and first cusin once removed, as did the previous VP, John C. Calhoun.  Calhoun married his first cousin once-removed, not Van Buren's cousin.

Something a little different here, although the Presidential Series has one of these.  Be safe.  Have fun!


** A note from IowaChupacabra: Hello! I am attempting to maintain Blue Grass Tom’s geocaches. Have fun as you travel and explore up and down these Iowa back country roads to find the geocaches in this series. As you do so, if you happen upon a wet log, torn bag, or cracked/damaged/missing container, and graciously make the choice to add/replace paper/bag or change out/replace a container, I would certainly appreciate it and Thank You for the help. I attempt to make a run through the area every few months to fix the problems noted in the logs, but there’s always something! Thank You!
