Thanksgiving Feast Leftovers: Pie for Breakfast Traditional Cache
MacFive: Wow! This area sure has changed alot since November 2014 when we placed this cache. Back then when we found this location it was a lonely spot on portion of Military street that had been closed. Now there is practically a house just a few feet away from the original location. There is now neighborhoods on both sides of this street. Construction was going on as we were there.
Archiving this cache because can not find a spot to move cache to near the original location.

The Pumpkin
Ah! on Thanksgiving day, when from East and from West,
From North and from South come the pilgrim and guest,
When the gray-haired New Englander sees round his board
The old broken links of affection restored,
When the care-wearied man seeks his mother once more,
And the worn matron smiles where the girl smiled before,
What moistens the lip and what brightens the eye?
What calls back the past, like the rich Pumpkin pie?
Then thanks for thy present! none sweeter or better
E'er smoked from an oven or circled a platter!
Fairer hands never wrought at a pastry more fine,
Brighter eyes never watched o'er its baking, than thine!
And the prayer, which my mouth is too full to express,
Swells my heart that thy shadow may never be less,
That the days of thy lot may be lengthened below,
And the fame of thy worth like a pumpkin-vine grow,
And thy life be as sweet, and its last sunset sky
Golden-tinted and fair as thy own Pumpkin pie!
