Geocache Description:

This cache is placed in honor of my two sons, who are now grown. I want to share with all who care to visit, the boys' meaning of this beautiful and hallowed place. Cache area is paved and kept up well. No difficulty and the container is a rubbermaid one.

This structure has been here since 1881, but in the minds of my young boys this has been here eternally. This is the home of the Tooth Fairest. The boys have lost many teeth and have believed as many children do in the Tooth Fairy or as my boys think, she is called the "Tooth Fairest." The boys have left many teeth under pillows and found coins the Tooth Fairest has left, when she came secretly at night taking their teeth. My kids minds are warped slightly; the fairytale of Sleeping Beauty ("fairest of them all") somehow got mixed up with Tinkerbell (who flittered about a castle spire on the Disney channel); it all got combined into their belief in the Tooth Fairest, whom they have always believed, lives in this place. Sadly the majority of this structure was torn down in 1967, leaving only a slim reminder of the grandeur that once was here. And, be sure to watch out for any falling pieces of the structure that may have crumbled. Please be discreet in searching as there may be eyes watching from nearby windows. Millions of lost teeth are stored here for safe keeping behind these locked doors, so to keep this cache safe, the best time to search is on wkends or after 5pm when all eyes have gone home for the day. Do not try to go in the doors, they are locked, that's where the Tooth Fairest keeps all the teeth she collects, and it is not where the geocache is, but it is nearby! NOTE: DO NOT LEAVE TEETH IN THIS CACHE, they belong UNDER YER PILLOW! However, feel free to leave or swap out any unusual or unwanted coins as the Tooth Fairest has quite an extensive coin collection she keeps for her world travels each night as she makes her rounds through countless pillows and toothless kids. Happy caching...and remember: BELIEVE WITH ALL YOUR HEART IN DREAMS...THEY COME TRUE! SO NEVER STOP BELIEVING!! -Carolina Moon
