MCHG - Kane Four Sons Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

rainbowtree: Kindness is an opportunity some do not see or choose to ignore.
Believe it is procedure to ask permission before logging an archived cache.

Too much effort has already gone into this project to create another puzzle. This cache was a bison tube not a nano. Moving the cache off-site is the criteria used to remove 80+ caches from the trail per complaint.

The trail was done correctly first time to meet the goals. ...
ANFVB was aware of the progress based on visits and published caches. Nothing was said until cacher complaints.
1. Caches placed at historical sites when possible.
2. History/Pictures placed on cache pages when there were proximity/placement issues, or nothing significant to see due to "progress". This allowed a thorough overview of McKean County History.
3. ANF is Trail Central, so caches were placed on almost a dozen trails throughout the county.
4. A variety of types allowed for cachers to have choices. For example, traditional cachers could earn their coin doing only traditional caches.
5. Over a hundred caches were placed in our county to give cachers a tour of the county with an abundance of caches to find.

Maintenance was not an issue. We (yes, we) were prepared to maintain the 100+ caches originally on the trail. DNFs were monitored and checked when several cachers/groups were unable to make the find. When we first checked, cache was not there. After logging the archived cache without permission, we looked again and found the cache, but not where we placed it.

-Submitted the last of the caches for the MCHG.
-Need to give you a heads-up on a problem with another cacher. There was a misunderstanding several years ago which I unsuccessfully tried to resolve, Consequently, she continues to be unkind in the logs whenever I place caches. Believe you need to be aware of the following cache: https://coord.info/GC837PK. Wrote a note explaining the situation.
-A special THANK YOU for all the time and effort you have given to make these caches available for all to enjoy!

The building across the street first served as the Palace of Sweets in the early 1900s. The Texas Hot Lunch has been a family business since 1928. That is when two Greek brothers sold their business, which they began in 1914. Since 1989 it has been under the ownership of John and Toula Bechakas, and managed by their four sons - James, Costas, Terry, Michael. This is a landmark restaurant serving patrons near and far.
