Geocache Description:

This is cache is my first and is located at the Bollinger Mill State Historic Site outside of Jackson, Missouri.

If you are coming in on I-55, take the Jackson exit (exit 99 when traveling south). Go all the way through Jackson and make a left on Hwy 34 (there are signs marking the way). The mill is in Burfordville, about five miles down Hwy 34. It is a very easy drive. Anyway, on to the good stuff!!

This cache contains several nice items including but not limited to the following:

1. Two travel bugs (Blues Traveler and Carter Bug)
2. 2 City of Roses Music Festival T-shirts size XL
3. Personal Planner
4. CD Case
5. Leather Business Card Holder
6. 12 Michael Jordan Basketball Cards
7. Bottle Hugger
8. 6 Pocket Screwdrivers
9. Various other "trinkets"

There is a four story brick mill and one of only four covered bridges in the state of Missouri at this site. Take time and tour the mill. It takes about forty-five minutes and they will take you to all four of its floors. The mill was still being used as late as the early 1950's. Today's mill is the third one built on the site and was completed around 1866. This is a beautiful area but is prone to flooding so you might want to postpone a trip if we have had heavy rains. Have a great time and enjoy the area!!!
