Geocache Description:

ABC's Extreme Makeover Home Edition show hit the sleepy suburb of Center Point in February 2005 with a vengeance! This quick 2-stage multi is in honor of their time here.

If you have ever watched this show, you know the premise: They pick a needy family and completely change thier lives with a new house and all the accoutrements that go along with it.

In July 2002, Chris and Diamond Harris were blessed with not one, two or three but SIX beautiful babies. Through a number of unfortunate events that were highlighted on the show when it aired on March 6th, the Harrises qualified to get a home makeover. Their 2000sf house was demolished and a 5000sf mansion took its place. Check out the EMHE web site for more info.

The first stage of this quick, easy multi puts you on the street corner across from the Harris' Extreme Makeover house. Take some pictures, or pretend to, since everyone else does! Then get the coordinates for the actual cache and you are off!

This is no normal micro, and doesn't qualify as one any longer since it had its own "Extreme Makeover"! It is big enough for small trade items and was nicely stocked by my 4 year old. When you are looking for the cache, think about the show. What would Ty Pennington do if he got ahold of a 35mm film cannister? This is my interpretation
