When you are seemingly in the middle of nowhere, having a cache to find can be fun.

---

I found this while out and about. Thought others would enjoy the visit. Answers to three questions should be emailed to me to get the find:

What is the significance of the cache name?


What is the last name of Jim & Bonnie?


What year is associated with CJ Stockfleth?

And, since you are in the neighborhood, see if you can be the first to:

Out and about caching and exploring with the geocacher extraordinaire known throughout the land as none other than the lovable and cuddly herndonrd. Today our goal was to get puzzle and virtual caches as well as whatever tickled our fancy.

This was one of our primary targets for the day, and we picked a great day to do this one. The weather was cold but clear and we had the place to ourselves.

As is typical, herndonrd wrote down all the answers and kindly sent them in on behalf of both of us. After we finished collecting all the data, we took a moment to appreciate the history of the area before heading back to the car and driving off to the next one. Thanks for the fun virtual and for your contribution to a great day of caching.

P. S. No animals (including humans or PayMeCache) were harmed in the writing of this log.

This year’s trip is a hunt for old caches.
I want to complete my forth lap and the rest of the gang is aiming for there first.
On the schedule are Mingo, Arikaree, Tarryall and a few other old ones then will we finish with Potters Pond.
So far have we avoided the bad weather and the tropical storm Alberto passed us.
