Geocache Description:


This geocache is dedicated to the 17-year cicadas (Brood XIV), that are coming out right about now.  So enjoy their lovely singing for a couple of weeks.    Here's a song written about them called "The Cicada Song".

Well now life's a little crazy for a girl like me
My mama left me high and dry up in a tree
Time went by I finally hit the ground
Seventeen years I been hangin' around
Now it's time to bust outta my shell
Strut my stuff and raise a little Hell
We party to the hilt 'cause we don't have long
This is the cicada song!

We sing and we fly
We mate and say goodbye
It took a lot of years just to get to this
Now we're in cicada bliss!

(written by Polly Hagar and Michael Wilmot)
