Geocache Description:

This cache is located in a park in Clemson, SC.  You will find picnic tables, benches, swings and a nice walking trail.  Accessible to all and geo-dogs are welcome too.  As always,  be aware of the usual geo-dangers: snakes, ticks, spiders, poison oak, etc.  Did we mention spiders?

The container blends well with it's surroundings and was a spice bottle in it's former life.  There is a FTF geocoin for the winner of the race.

 


Where the Sidewalk Ends
from the book "Where the Sidewalk Ends" (1974)

There is a place where the sidewalk ends
and before the street begins,
and there the grass grows soft and white,
and there the sun burns crimson bright,
and there the moon-bird rests from his flight
to cool in the peppermint wind.

Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
and the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
we shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow
and watch where the chalk-white arrows go
to the place where the sidewalk ends.

Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
and we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
for the children, they mark, and the children, they know,
the place where the sidewalk ends.
