This cache is named after a dear friend of mine who has passed away, He was known to many as "Diner Den". Dennis had many interests in life, one of them being food, and one of them being diners. What a coincidence! These two interests could both be indulged not too far from GZ.
As for the nearby diner itself. Here's a bit of it's history: "Whately Diner is a classic “Princess” style diner built in 1958 by the Kullman Company of New Jersey. It was originally located in Chicopee, MA where it was known as the Princess Diner. It was purchased by the F.L. Roberts Company in the early 1970’s and moved to the current location. Originally, it was known as the “Maverick”".
TAKE NOTE:
Do -NOT- park on Route 5 (State Road) to access this cache. Park on Old State Road/Old Swamp Road.
