Geocache Description:

This cache is located just off the bike trail in Aberdeen, SD.

I pointed out a city park where you can park all day.  There is a church parking lot near this cache. A terrain rating of two has been given to this cache because it is along the bike trail, which is meant to be walked/jogged/biked.  No need to stray far from the trail to find the cache.  Please make sure you leave the cache as found.  And enjoy the trail.


Bobby Darin wrote this song "Eighteen Yellow Roses" for the mother of actress Sandra Dee. Darin met Dee in 1960 when they were shooting a movie together in Portofino, Italy, called Come September. Darin was smitten, and decided it was best to get in her mother's good graces. Every day of the 4 week shoot, he sent Dee's mother 18 yellow roses - this was portrayed in the movie Beyond The Sea with Darin saying, "You always make sure the mama dog likes you before you go near her puppy." Darin and Sandra Dee eloped later that year, and were married until 1967.

Eighteen yellow roses came today
Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet
When the boy came to the door
I didn't know what to say
But, eighteen yellow roses came today.
