Whistlen: Every time I checked on this, it was moved, damaged, or gone so I'm done. It's nit where I placed it and yet it moved. Why do these things move?

Thanks to those who found it, sorry to those who did not but no one seems to follow the guidelines anymore.

Geocache Description:

For as many years as I can remember, The Sheep Lady, Dorthea E. Davis ran a sheep farm in Willoughby. She was born in 1925 and passed away in 2004. She was well known in these part and her place was often used as a directional landmark..."just to the east of the Sheep Lady's farm." A few years before she passed on, a fire almost destroyed her house. The community joined in and rebuilt her place, fixed her fences and brought food for her little lambs. When she passed on, her sheep were taken to a local farm for kids and others to enjoy.

Now there is a condo community going in with a very fitting name and a large stone bares a plaque in her honor. Be respectful of the newly installed landscaping. There is no need to overturn anything! Park on the side of the newly installed street but enter from off the sidewalk.

Container is large enough for small trades. All I had to place inside is the First To Find Signature Disc. I saw this spot yesterday and had to act fast to get a hide in before anyone else!!! (Sorry to the locals for getting mine in first!)

Now, here's a little jingle just for The Sheep Lady!

Dorthea had a little Lamb,
It's fleese was black as soot.
And every where that Dorthea went,
His sootie footie put!

She sure is missed!
