Geocache Description:


On our way back from a Geocaching Day in Wichita, we saw this beautiful relic from the past and figured it needed a cache!  This is a lovely little spot overlooking the Arkansas River on the East side of Oxford, Kansas.

I wish I knew a little more about this big ol boy--I'm sure my Grandpa could've told me a thing or two about it if he were still alive!

You are looking for a magnetic key holder.  (Go Figure!)

Container and log sheet only.  Happy Caching!

Be sure to look in the photo gallery for more information on this wonderful machine! (Big Thanks to "When Pigs Fry" for his "Note"---Log Date: 7/19/2014 That's an Avery Co. Steam Tractor built in the early 1900's.) Information about it's history and restoration can be found here: http://oldtractors-engines.blogspot.com/2013/01/avery-company.html
