Geocache Description:


Another "new" series down an "old" Red Dirt Road (Princetown-Warburton Road), a Scenic Heritage Road (click) that is nearly always cached up. The road is not maintained and will be muddy in the spring and after rain. It makes for a great snowshoe or cross-country ski during the winter and a nice hike during the summer and fall. All cache containers are hanging, small-medium and are winter friendly barring heavy snowfall.

Do ya feel lucky?

"Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?

Americans spent more than $80 billion on lottery tickets in 2016 -- more than they spent on books, movie tickets, music, video games, and sports tickets --combined. The reason why is clear: Lotteries offer the chance of striking it rich. Plenty of jackpots in recent years have offered hundreds of millions of dollars.

While the potential payoff may be astronomic, the chance of winning it is microscopic. The odds of winning the Powerball or Mega Millions grand prize are, respectively, 1 in 292,201,338 and 1 in 302,575,350. There are about 327 million people in America, so it's almost like randomly picking one resident as the winner.
This series identifies 25 wild things more likely to happen to you than winning the lottery. GOOD LUCK!

NO. 9: YOU'RE MORE LIKELY TO BE DIAGNOSED WITH THE PLAGUE


According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in recent decades, there have been about seven cases of the plague in America, on average, each year. With a U.S. population of 326 million, your odds of catching the plague are about 1 in 46.6 million. If you want to reduce those odds further, it's advised that you stay away from rodents and try not to touch living or dead rodents without gloves. Keep your pets free of fleas and use rodent flea repellents, yourself, if you're in an area where you might encounter them.
