Brassfinger Traditional Cache

I hid this cache on Fathers Day in honor of my dad. He passed away in 2003. Every time I look for a geocache, especially in a cemtery, I think about how much he would have enjoyed this game. He is buried at Lakeview, but not in this location. As always, please be respectful, and cache during cemetery hours. Hours are 8 am - 5 pm. In the summer the gates are open until 7:30 pm. Once upon a time my mom and her friends got locked in here; the hours are no joke.

Brassfinger was one of my dad's nicknames - he loved trains and ran a hobby shop for many years. That shop eventually morphed into a video store that rented movies and games. He grew to love electronic gadgets - I am surprised he didn't own a GPSr. I often wonder if he had heard of geocaching in those early days - he would have loved it. Many Sunday's were spent driving backroads, exploring, finding interesting picnic spots, and checking out old cemteries. He also loved to study maps, plan routes, and track his routes after a trip. Geocaching would have been a perfect fit, and I would love his expertise to help plan caching trips!

This is a simple hide in a really cool area of the cemetery I discovered in my letterboxing days.
