Geocache Description:

Easy cache just off the beaten path!

NOTE New Coordinates: N 48° 2.218' W 122° 55.112' Had to move it to the other end of the cemetery because of construction where it was. Also changed the container to a simple one for now.

BRING A PEN/PENCIL FOR THIS LOG!

A quick cache to show off the local little cemetery.

WARNING: TOTAL spoiler in the Hint!!

Remember, cemeteries are not tourist attractions, so, treat with reverence!

LOTS of local history here...this is a pretty old cemetery. Gardiner used to be a town, but, with the removal of the local Post Office, it reverted to the Sequim zip code, though it is in Jefferson County instead of Clallam County. Lots to see and do in this little town...Troll Haven, Discovery Bay boat access ramp, Wild Bird store, Espresso Garden (closed in 2014), Waters West Fly Shop (closed in 2012), Antique store, and some really nice country roads!

DRIVING DIRECTIONS:
Hwy 101 from the SOUTH-->Just past Hwy 101 marker 277 turn left on Gardiner Cemetery Rd., just up the road on the left is the cemetery.

Hwy 101 from Sequim--> Just past Hwy 101 marker 276 turn right on Gardiner Cemetery Rd., just up the road on the left is the cemetery.

BEGINNING CONTENTS:
.50 for FTF
3 micro-erasers
2 micro-clips
1 eraser
2 Geocaching pins
2 Geocaching Smashed Pennies

HAVE FUN! Don't forget to stop and smell the lilacs!

NOTE: As with all of my Cemetery Series, you do not need to walk on any graves or disturb anything on or around any grave. My intent with this series is to promote remembrance of those who have gone before us. There is much to be learned in this and all of the cemeteries around us, if we just take a few minutes and look and read.
