Small pill bottle at the base of the road sign.

Do not cross any fences.

Watch out for snakes.

The Lutheran church located across the road is soon to be celebrating their 125th anniversary. This church was founded by the original settlers of the old German settlement area. Hope Congregational Church down the road was formed when a split occurred between members over 100 years ago. Thankfully, old wounds have been healed and the churches often have many functions together throughout each year now.Originally, both churches held their service entirely in German. Now only a few of the oldest members speak in German and the services are, of course, held in English now. Come Christmas time however both churches still love to sing German Christmas carols. It is something wonderful to hear!

On a geocaching road trip with geodog, Spartacus. We appreciate all the work you did for this geoart. Thanks for the placement, ColoradoKids!

BugRanger and I wanted a last good caching trip to Eastern Colorado, and targeted the Bethune Cross for a little geo-art. By the time we got here we didn't have a whole lot of daylight left, but zipped along as fast as we could and finished up just at dark, missing only one. I normally dislike cut-and-paste logs, and I'll add comments where warranted anyway, but mostly we got the hang of these hides quickly and really appreciated the fun of the whole thing. TFTC!

Out on a short spring break road trip with Ladybug Rose and the kids. We were in Colorado already, so a short piece of geoart to add to the numbers worked out well. TFTC
