Geocache Description:

Another Roadside Attraction Geotrail

 

North Carolina - Country Doctor Museum

 


There is nothing better than a good road trip: driving down the open road, eating at tiny roadside diners, going 150 miles out of the way to take a selfie in front of … the Peachoid water tower! Oh Say, can you see … me with the world’s largest frying pan?

This geotrail honors those unique, odd, bizarre, fun, historic, campy, weird, and just downright interesting roadside attractions in North and South Carolina. The caches aren’t meant to be hard, it is a power-trail after all. None of the caches are hidden at the posted locations - but answer the question correctly and you will have a working set of coordinates. All of the hides are preform bottles.


The Country Doctor Museum is the oldest museum in the United States dedicated to the history of America's rural health care. It was created in 1967 to build a lasting memorial for rural physicians. Over the decades, the Museum's collection grew to over 5,000 medical artifacts and many volumes of historic texts. The interpretive exhibits range from rural doctors to topics such as nursing, pharmaceuticals, and home remedies. The collection includes historic medical vehicles, artifacts and implements, including an iron lung, and the Civil War surgical tools of a doctor who assisted in the amputation of Stonewall Jackson's arm.
