Geocache Description:

Nantmeal Village is a place where Christmas magic takes place. Benevolent spirits like Tomtons, Nisses, Wichtels, and Secret Santas are know to bring joyful surprises to the residents there. On Christmas Eve I had the idea to hide my son's present outside of the house and give him the GPS coordinates to find it. That experience inspired this cache. 


In their historic homes, residents are baking Christmas cookies, making festive jams, and cooking all manner of delicacies for the holiday season. Listen for Christmas caroling and instruments playing the music of the season. Houses will be decorated with greens, lights, and other symbols of the season. Children will be laughing, playing, and turning every moment into a frolic. Each house is decked with a Christmas tree and hung stockings, but there is no room inside for all the presents. Some have been placed outside the house.

This cache will take you to the outskirts of Nantmeal Village, across from a once-upon-a-time dairy farm. It is certainly NOT a place you would expect to find a present, but it is outside the house! You will park by the "No Dumping" sign to begin your search. The original theme container is long gone. But for some people a cup of hot coffee that is “good to the last drop” is equal to or better than a Christmas present! Please close it and re-hide it well. There is a lot of poison ivy on the way so please have your feet, ankles, and legs covered.
