Geocache Description:

This virtual is located in the Great Lakes National Veterans Memorial Cemetery, and as such is only available dawn to dusk.
I would like to say thank you to all the cachers who found my caches and gave them favorite points, It is your appreciation of my hard work and creativity that made this Virtual possible.

UPDATE 10/10/2023: After the sudden & unexpected passing of the original cache owner, TazmanianDevils recently & his wife Winnie_thePooh a few years ago, with the help of -Tiki-, our local volunteer reviewer, I have adopted his caches. As it was when it was published by him, It will continue to stay active. Thank you for visiting.

Great Lakes National Cemetery is a United States National Cemetery located in Holly, Oakland County, Michigan. It was established in 2005, and is one of two national cemeteries in Michigan (the other being Fort Custer). Administered by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, the cemetery covers 544 acres and, as of 2014, had over 23,000 interments.

One very special one to me is Columbarium 30 Row C 33.

I would like to take a moment to say thank you to tnphotobug for his thoughtful log and visit to this virtual. He has made an amazing video of the location and you can view it at Video
