Long ago, the city of Spokane was actually a thriving community of Giants. They were a well developed community, with roads, houses, even a milk man that would drop off bottles to each house in the mornings. Legends claim the Giant city died out after a strike over their recycling system. They didn't have one, you see, and the city waste management team started refusing to pick up the daily milk bottles, claiming it wasn't eco friendly. Soon the city was drowning in the faithful milkman's daily deliveries. The Giants never could come to a resolution of what to do with the milk bottles, so several of them decided to take their belongings and move away.

Over time several of the milk bottles shattered, either due to heat or erosion. Two can still be seen in the city of Spokane. When the settlers to the area moved in, they found the milk bottles too large to move, and they were repurposed. The one you can see before you has been converted into a restaurant.

There is more giant's trash around town, especially down by the river. Can you find that too? Some of this trash has magically reappeared in our logo and coin!!


This cache is part of the 2019 Fantastic Unbelievable Nonsense Geocoin Challenge where everything is made up and the points don't matter. If it's been FUN, it probably happened in Spokane. One of Spokane's most enjoyed restaurants was located around here. It was called the S Car Go and it only served snails. It was great because it wasn't fast food. We hope you will enjoy the Geocoin Challenge as much as the S Car Go once was. Upon your successful completion of the FUN Geocoin Challenge where you will be speedily rewarded with a trackable Geocoin, and that's no joke!
