Geocache Description:

Proud Members Of




There was once a cache nearby this location, by the name of “1 LEAN BIGRED”, however, it had to be moved. The reason being, the nearby bridge, the only wooden bridge in Florida according to the locals, is not in the best of shape. Well the DOT has decided to replace this rugged, old and quaintly noisy bridge with a new bridge. I’m not yet sure what it will like, but it will probably lack character as do most bridges built anymore on back roads.



The deconstruction of the existing bridge was scheduled to begin on March 1, 2010, at which time the only access to this cache and nearby Tosatchee Wildlife Management Area would only be from the south end of Taylor Creek Road. But as things often go when the government is running the show, nothing has begun here yet. I’m not sure when it will begin, heck, even the park rangers are now unsure. When it does start I will update the cache page to let everyone know.



Since the original cache had been here so long, with the blessing of Overrover who placed it, the original container and log are still a part of this cache. Even the swag is still the same. Essentially it is the same cache in a new location. This is a very photographic spot and feel free to take and post any pics including ones showing the cache location. This is also a great cache for the kids! Please be respectful and mindful as the cache location has been graciously donated to geocachers by Jim, the owner of the location. He is really looking forward to meeting anyone who comes by so please feel free to stop and chat a while. Also as cachers know, it is always better to leave the area better than we found it, please practice CITO here, please help keep this area clean. One more thing, very important! US Mail boxes for regular mail, whether provided by the Post Office or by the homeowner are the property of the US Post Office, in other words Keep Out Of the Snail Mail Box. The Postal Service has no say on any other boxes (get it?)







If you got a smiley on "1 LEAN BIGRED" you can now get a new smiley for this cache. This is also a great place to moveT/B’s and Geocoin’s wanting to stop in
Christmas.
