Geocache Description:

Best to park in the strip mall just a bit southeastward of cache and walk over.  This part of Dunham Road is very narrow and cars parked along there are likely to cause attention.

Listen closely:  you should hear the cache calling out to you!


This continues the “This Day in History” calendar series. Without the help of local cachers, this would not be possible! Thank you!
