Who knew the historic Yates Tavern built in 1750 had a phone?!?
Local lure has it that the proprietor, Samuel Yates, would not allow "new-fangled evils" to cross the threshold of his establishment for fear of improprieties which might follow. Therefore, to respect his wishes, this piece of modern wizardry you're searching for today has been grafted to the strong trunk of a nearby living giant, which has surely seen many a soul fill their belly or rest their head at this place of timeless respit.
While you're here, take a few minutes to check out the unique design of this structure with its overhanging "jetties," said to be the only example of its kind remaining in the state of Virginia. Please respect this site and enjoy its history!
It'll be just a short stroll from the parking area thru the meadow to reach the cache, but don't forget to bring your pen! You'll need to re-assemble the container correctly so it's intact and ready for the next cacher!
