Geocache Description:


Along time ago Duck Pond was a beautiful place with a lot of ducks. The ducks found all of the caches around Duck Pond and wanted a few more caches to find. And then they saw this one pop up and they got real excited.  Not only would they find another cache, but they might also get a FTF if they move really quick.  So a few ducks traveled to the cache.Once they got to the spot they started to look. They looked for over 3 hours at every possible hiding spot they could see but didn't find a single container. Eventually they left the area and told everyone their unsuccess. All of the ducks agreed to leave Duck Pond and travel to Twin Hills Park in Crestview. That's why there are no ducks in Duck Pond and a lot of them at Twin Hills Park. **** Note **** Note **** This cache is located on the Eglin AFB reservation.
