Sweet Tug Traditional Geocache

Years ago, this tugboat was pushing a barge loaded with molasses when a storm caused both to break loose from its route and come aground on one of the rivers many sandbars. Legend has it that the sticky sweet stuff leaked in to the river for months and that fishing near the wreck was never better.
