Geocache Description:

This should be an easy find for experienced cachers. However, any cacher with less than one hundred finds may find this quite difficult. This cache replaces "Old Riverdale Cache."

Cache is located behind the old Riverdale Shopping center. Northing readings varied from 694 and 695 while westing ranged from 222 to 224.

In model railroading a "kitbash" is making a model using a kit or kits to make something different from what the kit builder intended. This cache is in a shopping center that over the years has been kitbashed. Mickie worked in the People's Drug store that was once here when we first got engaged. Next door was a grocery so we got a lot of our groceries there. Our son's many wrestling medals got engraved at a trophy shop that was once there. I could go on and on, but you want to know about today. Foot muggle traffic is actually fairly low, but vehicle traffic may be heavy at times. BYOP Please make sure the cache container is replaced as found.
If you are a Virginia cacher and would like to have a Virginia special geocaching license plate for your cachemobile, contact WckdSoul65@yahoo.com for more information.
Experienced cachers should avoid looking at the hint as you will find it a big spoiler.

Congratulations to Coastalgypsies for their FTF. This may be their first. I saw their find e-mail before I saw the publication e-mails!
