Geocache Description:

2 stage multi. It's my first multi, but I think it is a good one. This is not a kid friendly cache, unless you take the long way around.
If you take the shorter way, for a short time it will be a little dangerous.
The shorter way is just a little ways down the path going south and a little bit around the river bend.

If the coords are off, please let me know.
.
Stage one is an ammo can.
Stage two is a camoed 1/2 gallon Lock and Lock

My father introduced me to the Clancy Brothers when I was little. He's not Irish, in fact he's 100% Polish. I guess since they sing a lot about boats and boating and he loves to sail, it hit a chord with him.
They have a lot of great songs, which I may name some caches after, but this is one of my favorites. I like it because it has a Dr Demento show quality to the lyrics.
In fact, I wonder if it has ever been on his show..? It certainly is a worthy candidate.

Fathers Grave by Clancy Brothers

---------------------------------------------
Oh, they're moving fathers grave
To build a sewer.
They're moving him
Regardless of expense
They've dug up his remains
To put in 5 inchs drains
To irrigate some
Posh blokes residence

Now, what's the use
Of having a religion
If when you're dead
you're troubles never cease
If some poor city chap
Wants a pipeline to his privy
They'll never let a British workman
Rest in peace.

Now in his lifetime
Father never was a quitter
I'm sure that he won't
Be a quitter now
When the jobs complete
He'll haunt that privy seat
And only let them go
When he'll allow.

Now won't there be some
Bloomin' consternation
And won't those city chappies
Rant and rave
Which is more than they deserve
For having the bleading nerve
To much around with a
British workmans grave.
