Current Goal

To visit natural history sites all over the world. Anthropological, geological, or archaeological sites are all welcome stops. Please post pictures of the interesting places it goes along with information about the location, I (and I’m sure many others) love learning about all the neat little places geocachers find to hide all those valuable items I find in geocaches.

In keeping with the stated goal, I dropped this one off at the Athens Lunatic Asylum. The cache that was used is very close to the numbered graves of patients that surely died of the many lobotomies that were performed at the institute by a Doctor that was know for advancing a particular kind of lobotomy.
The Athens Lunatic Asylum was a mental hospital operational in Athens, Ohio from 1874 until 1993. During its operation, the hospital provided services to a variety of patients including Civil War veterans, children, and violent criminals suffering from various mental disabilities. It is best known as a site of hundreds of the infamous lobotomy procedure, as well as various supposed paranormal sightings.

I enjoyed finding a suitable cache to drop this coin in to help it out. Thanks for sharing with me.
