Geocache Description:


...only ends up making the whole world blind.

The Mahatma Gandhi Memorial is a public sculpture by Gautam Pal located at the Milwaukee County Courthouse in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The sculpture stands on a tapered red granite base on which bronze plaques are mounted on four sides to display texts. Placement between Courthouse doors labeled "TRUTH" and "JUSTICE" reinforces the message of the sculpture. 

I thought this would be a good choice for my Virtual Reward since I am half Indian. My Father immigrated to America from India. He grew up in the same village as Gandhi and the Mahatma was good friends with his family. Gandhi even performed the wedding ceremony for my Aunt (see pictures).

Gandhi performs the wedding of my Dad's Sister.

To log this Virtual Reward:

1. Submit a photograph of your team at this statue. If you do not wish to be in the picture show your GPS at the statue instead.

2. Find the smaller monument near the statue. Send an email or message telling me what it says and what date is on it.

Each account logging this Virtual must send their own answers. Do not post photographs that give away the answers or mention them in your online log.

 

Update: Due to construction at the courthouse you may take a picture of the statue from a distance behind the barricades. Please still try to get yourself or gps (if you prefer not to show yourself) in your picture. The second question is waived during the construction period.

Please leave the following text at the bottom of the page, so cache finders understand the Virtual Reward project.
