Geocache Description:

We'll Never Forget 9/11. This is #11 of a nation-wide series.

It's burned into our psyche. Men, women, children. Innocence attacked.

Disastrous. Disgusting.

Yet out of that arose a new patriotism, a new appreciation for who we are and what we have.

Heroes. Men and women just doing what they do. We've developed a new appreciation for the heroes among us... those who serve and protect, whose names you'll never know until disaster befalls them while they look out for us.

This cache is dedicated to that renewal of faith, hope and patriotism arising from the events of that day.

This location is of some historical signifigance to the City of Irondale; the hide site is where Iron Ore mined from nearby Ruffner Mountain was trundled down to be loaded on trains. Cannons were cast here as well as glass to support the 'War of Northern Aggression'. You will see the old railbed. This mining led to the development of Birmingham and it's industrial renown as Steel City.

This is a coins swap cache with a twist! Swap coins if you want, or trade swag for a coin, but PLEASE:

Take only one coin if you are trading swag for it.

Trade coins one for one.

Be considerate of others with your trades! A business card is not a satifactory trade for a geocoin!

Please do not log coins into this cache - that just makes it a target! Describe coin swaps in your log. Thank you!

There is only one house nearby, he knows the cache is there. If he's watching you just wave or walk over and say hi!
