Geocache Description:

This is a cache hidden in the cemetery of Sts. Peter & Paul Catholic Church.  It was hidden by the pastor, so it's okay.  He likes cemetery caches, and thinks this is a particularly nice and peaceful cemetery.


The title of the cache, by the way, Requiéscant in pace, is Latin for "May they rest in peace."  That's what R.I.P. stands for, if you see it on a grave marker.  As you walk through the cemetery, take a look at some of the old iron crosses that serve as grave markers.  They were made by the locals, some more than a century ago.  You may also notice many of the graves are marked in German, as the locals are mostly of German-Russian descent.  Many of the townspeople here can still speak a dialect of German.

Bring your own writing utensil, as there's not much room for one in the cache.
