Geocache Description:

For anyone that has, or is about to hear of Dr Seuss's 1958 Book 'Yertle the Turtle',

Well the story continues....
You see ....
Yertle the turtle 'King of the Mud',
As he grew Old, fled to the mountains,
not afraid of the Cold, To find a new pond,
where he could grow old, And now the Great Yertle,
that Marvelous he, Is again King of the Pond.
That is all he can see..

Have fun finding him relaxing near his new pond.

Placed on our families 1st anniversary of caching.

Easily accessible from the highway both East or West bound via Bulls Camp reserve.

We have included a link to Dr Seus's Original book in the description, along with a youtube link to the story narated by John Lithgow.
