About This Item

eerie devil duck

I shall travel and travel until the day I am completely re-invigorated. Sigh ...

I was born at a sunny pond, looking much like most other ducks you may have met in the past: all yellow, horn-free, and quite cute. But then, in my stormy adolescence, I moved to Centralia, PA: the town where the coal fires of hell never stop burning.
Muaaaa ha ha ha haaaa!
Smoke continually hangs in the air, filtering up from underground fires. Homes have caved in due to this constant fire. There used to be a church here somewhere. Streets have been swallowed up or been totally deserted. Vegetation is scorched. Everyone has grown a set of black horns and voted Marilyn Manson as our Homecoming Queen year after year.

Now, look at me .... I don't even like myself very much! I must get out of The Town Before Time, and get far far far from Centralia. I wish to visit places that leave you feeling just great and totally ready for anything the world may throw at you. Places with lots of yummy things to eat, or complimentary feather massages, or special duck baths, or ... well you get my drift. The Falling Zen Waters cache in Florida would be awesome!

Some more background info from the PA Dept of Environmental Protection and from centraliapa.com.

Please do take pictures and upload them. Don't show the numbers on the metal tag, though. They should be known ONLY by cachers who have actually met me in person.

Plucked the Devil Duckie from Poe Valley State Park. He's headed for a wicked good time camping and mountain biking in the Western Poconos next week. Maybe I'll leave him in the area for a little R & R... Muwah ha ha!!

I picked up this poor little guy on a day of caching. Poor thing was stuck in Death Valley for WAY too long. I'll try and get him somewhere a little more UPLIFTING and refreshing soon.

I just had to take the Duckie. He has been cooped up in that cache with that ugly doll for way too long. He will be dropped off in my next caching adventure.

4:15 P.M. Found this hot little critter in a place that can and will be called the closest thing to hell as I want to get. He said he wants to get refreshed so I will be taking him back to my cache, Fields. of Gold, where he will enjoy the lush green fields of clover and grasses that the Dept. of Nat. Resources and the Game Commission have so graciously provided by filling in another so called hell hole, abandoned stripping pits. I hope this will be to his liking. HAKenders
