Geocache Description:


This cache is located along the Lawence and Orange county line.

With man-made and natural wonders, Lawrence County, Indiana is known as the 'limestone capital of the world' and the center of Hoosier heartland. Intriguing limestone mills and quarries are surrounded by scenic hills and natural marvels. To find out more about Lawrence County, click or past the following link. (visit link)

The centerpiece of Orange County is the two-story courthouse, located in Paoli. Back in the day a tourist could stay in a local lodging establishment for 12.5 cents and get a meal for another quarter. Unfortunately for modern-day tourists, prices have understandably risen in the past two centuries.
In 1973 construction began on the largest tourist attraction in the county. Patoka Lake filled to its current 8,800-acre reservoir in 1980 and it now includes the full-service Patoka Lake Marina, beach, and numerous lodging facilities.
Today, it is still removed from the hustle and bustle of the more populated areas, but yet provides tourists with a diversity of activities ranging from outdoor activities to upscale attractions. Other attractions include French Lick Springs Resort and soon to be Trump Casino! To read more about Orange County click or paste this link. (visit link)
