This is the first in a series of micro caches. While on a trip to Florida, I found many of these micros there. They are fun but "mean", hence the name. These are very small so bring your own writing instrument!
This cache is also part of our series of historical caches. This is the second of Middle Peninsula historical caches after Fort James Takes its Toll.
A little history....
According to Gloucester legend, this is all that remains of the house built by Captain John Smith for Indian Chief Powhatan 1609. The collapse
of this structure in an 1888 storm gave impetus to the preservation movement in Virginia. Concerned Virginians banded together in Williamsburg, Norfolk, and
Richmond. They were determined to save other historical structures and sites from similar fate. From their efforts came the organization of the Association
of the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities. The present structure was rebuilt in the 1930's by the Joseph Bryan Branch of the APVA.
