Geocache Description:

No, not the new one! (I'd be interested to know how many read the name and ended up miles off). Looking for a yellow keychain pill holder, camo'd in similar fashion as other nearby hides...

The following instructions will make sense when CC is in hand- Hold the doves, pull the butterfly. Line up the marks to close. Re-hide with birds 'grounded'. Bacon Academy is touted as the 2nd longest continually operating public High School in Connecticut (I'm still searching for the oldest- anyone know?) opening in November of 1803 with an endowment from Pierpont Bacon. His name has been carried on to all the subsequent incarnations of the school. Cache is a yellow, plastic bison-style keychain pill holder that is completely enclosed by the camo it's anchored in. While you're here, take a look around the old burial grounds, and also visit the 'Lest We Forget' virtual cache close by.
