Here is a series of caches that celebrates one of the coolest models of cars ever built, the Ford Thunderbird. I've never owned one, but one day I'd love to buy and old classic example. I'd cruise from cache to cache with the top down! Man, that would be the life.

The Private World of Thunderbird
The number one box office hit of the year was "The Sound of Music," starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer. Nominated for ten Academy Awards, it won five of them for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Sound, Best Score, and Best Film Editing. "The Sound of Music" became the biggest box office hit of all time, surpassing "Gone With the Wind." Motown artists held two of the top five songs on the charts at radio station WTRY in Albany, New York. "Can't Help Myself" by The Four Tops was number one, and The Supremes were at number five with "Back In My Arms Again" for the week ending June 11, 1965.
