Geocache Description:

It's not far off the road on Route 66.

This cache is for all the geotourists out there and those coming through for the Route 66 Festival visit link in Tulsa this summer. Get your souvenir here!

There is a good place to pull off the highway nearby. The cache is near enough to see the road but the area is wooded, on a slight slope and there is a small creek to hop over. Bring your bug spray unless it's the dead of winter. I carried six new friends out with me when placing it. It's NOT in that animal hole so don't go reaching in there.

This is a themed cache full of Oklahoma tourist schlock - magnets, thimbles, spoons, keychains, postcards, golfballs, etc. - so if you're from outside Okla., please leave something from your hometown or state and if you're from here, dig out that piece of junk you bought in "insert name of tourist trap here" and trade it.

Finally, this is a good luck cache, guaranteed to bring luck in the day's caching to all who find it. Why? Because 1)it was placed on Good Friday 2)it is placed in a never-happen-again conglomeration of caching firsts: first cache I've placed, the day of my first FTF, the weekend of my 100th find 3)a huge Barred Owl watched calmly from right overhead the entire time I worked on it.

The hint's a spoiler.
