This cache is a nice long drive in the countryside well off the paved highways. After all, not all caches worth finding can be located next to the hardtop. Roads are generally in good shape as long as it hasn't rained when you make the trip. You will understand the name for the cache when you arrive here. Oh, pop is 50 cents and water is good in the hydrant. GOOD LUCK

I'm out here drinking my $.50 Mt Dew, but my coords are way off and I have no idea where the actual cache is located. Still, what a neat little gem tucked away out here. TFTC.

We decided to try putting caches into the GPS in our new geomobile, a brand new 2013 Dodge Durango Crew, and see how it would work for geocaching. Mr. C-3 wanted to get out of the city so we decided to come out here. It has been several years since we have been out here and it is really nice to be back! We have seen three deer, two herds of antelope and even an owl perched on a fence post. We had a good chuckle when we made the connection to the name. Those sure are some old pop dispensers! I was a little leary about getting this cache, but once I started in, it wasn't as bad as I had first thought. I still beat everything good with my cane to make sure any slithering residents weren't out and about. I loved finding a large container for a change!!! Thank you! And, it was very well stocked. I took the Warriors of the Flames video clip and the book, The Shack. The book is one of the greatest that I have ever read and I am looking forward to checking out the video. They both will make good additions to our church's library. I left some of our trademark earrings. Thanks for adding to our day with this wonderful cache!!!

Today we got some serious windshield time in NE Colorado. We found our first cache in the darkness of the morning and found our last at night. The day started out cool and misty aired and continued to be overcast with an occasional sprinkle of rain in the afternoon. As we were caching we were alerted to a large storm system west of us, which included tornados and hail. We did not see any sign of such during caching adventure, so we kept going - guess luck was on our side. As we arrived at home, there were downed street lights and trees, inches of hail piled up as if it were snow - all of our trees and plants took a beating, but remained in tact. We then found out that a tornado touched down in our town - that explains the extra tree we now have laying in our front yard.

No issues on the access road today. SL. TFTC.

Thank you, sandhill 49er, for placing this cache.
