Geocache Description:

Just a little random geography lesson!

 


All I ask of you when you claim this smiley is to log your visit with the name of your hometown and at least two facts it.. (where you were born or grew up!)

I figured being from a military town there were lots of us from all over in one area, and it would be fun to see where we are all from and get to know that city/town a little better.

Instead of logging it, I will just start here..

I am from New London, Ohio. (sort of near Cleveland, GO BROWNS/INDIANS/CAVS!) I lived there my entire life leading up to the year 2000. When I moved to Virginia Beach.

10 Facts about New London, Ohio.

  • There is only one grocery store.
  • We have the best local pizza joint, the food is fantastic.
  • The population was 2,461 at the 2010 census.

  • New London is actually a village, and the village motto is "The Right Place at the Right Time"
