Many websites credit Albert Einstein with this statement "Imagination is more important than knowledge".
This remark apparently was made by Einstein during an interview that was published in “The Saturday Evening Post” in 1929 and an excerpt from that interview is as follows:
Einstein : “I believe in intuitions and inspirations. I sometimes feel that I am right. I do not know that I am. When two expeditions of scientists, financed by the Royal Academy, went forth to test my theory of relativity, I was convinced that their conclusions would tally with my hypothesis. I was not surprised when the eclipse of May 29, 1919, confirmed my intuitions. I would have been surprised if I had been wrong.”
Interviewer: “Then you trust more to your imagination than to your knowledge?”
Einstein : “I am enough of the artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”

The Geocache that was once here was one that was known for being a "quick grab" but whether anyone gave much thought to the meaning of its name is another story. The original listing for that hide is no longer available here, but a replacement cache remains as a reminder of the phrase that is now attributed to Albert Einstein which is very much true today as it was back in the 1920's.
This one is, as was the previous incarnation, a quick LPS/grab & go.

The third in this series of caches dedicated to cruisers and car lovers throughout the world. The Woodward Dream Cruise celebrates the heydays of the ‘50s and ‘60s when Woodward Avenue was the heart and soul of cruising in the city that put America on wheels. Combined with music and fashions of the era, the Dream Cruise celebrates the nostalgia of bygone days in the cars that made them so special. The Woodward Dream Cruise is sponsored by a volunteer committee that coordinates the efforts of the nine host cities, the County of Oakland, media organizations, transportation authorities, corporations, small businesses and charities. Woodward Avenue from Ferndale to Pontiac is lined on both sides with magnificent classic and custom automobiles. It's a 16-mile long car show that is educational, historic and fun for all ages. There is no charge to attend the Woodward Dream Cruise. The Woodward Dream Cruise is the world's largest one-day celebration of car culture that attracts over 1.7 million visitors, and more than 40,000 muscle cars, street rods, custom, collector and special interest vehicles. This cache is a large enough for only the log sheet. Please bring a pen or pencil. Some stealth will be required, especially during the warmer weather and while the Dream Cruise is in full swing. I prefer mine toasted!
