Forgotten Brooks Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

QUE3NBE3: Stopped by to check on this one. Took a long time to find the cache but persistence paid off. It was in great shape, but the host is so deteriorated and there really isn't anywhere for this to be hidden in the immediate area, so I am regretfully archiving this cache.

Geocache Description:

Small container with room for very small swag or a smallish trackable. Bring your own pen.  First to Find wins a Two Dollar coin from the Fiji Islands, where my husband and I went on vacation last year.

I love caches that bring me to hidden locations, places that are forgotten by time or overlooked by people going about their usual business. I recently spotted this hidden grave marker in an area that is right next to a busy road, but is easily accessible from the Riverdale Baptist side of the cemetery. Parking shouldn't be a problem if you look for the entrance to the cemetery. There is a small road that runs in front of the cemetery that you can drive along. Once you find the cache, you will notice an old paved path, semi-hidden by overgrowth. Follow the path which leads toward the marker that rarely anyone seems to remember, judging by the thick growth of grass leading up to it.  Congrats to Unusualsuspect for the FTF!


**These days, the area surrounding the monument is well-kept and mown, so it appears that "Brooks" is not forgotten.
