FINS: The Joneses Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

CrazyFrogLady: Yep, this one is gone again. Time to archive. I am not sure if the Geo-Tour team still have coins left for the year this cache was placed for, but if they do, and you are working on that, this should just become a free space.

Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the 2016 Spokane GeoTour. If you are participating in this GeoTour be sure to download and print your passport at SpokaneGeoTour.com and get started today.

This cache is placed and maintained by Poke'Frog.

This cache is part of the Filmed In Spokane Geo-Tour 2016.  It is located along a public bike path that runs alongside the Liberty Lake Golf Course. We chose this location to place a golf themed geocache because the movie The Joneses was partially filmed at a golf course in the Spokane Area. You have to leave the bike path and venture into a small wooded area so it is not quite handi-cachable due to the need to navigate typical forest debris.

 

The Movie: The Joneses (2009), Rated R, 96 minutes

 



Movie Synopsis: "The Joneses" is a social commentary on our consumerist society. Perfect couple Steve and Kate Jones (David Duchovny and Demi Moore) and their gorgeous teen-aged children Jen and Mick (Amber Heard and Ben Hollingsworth) are the envy of their posh, suburban neighborhood filled with mansions and all the trappings of the upper middle class. Kate is the ultimate trend setter - beautiful, sexy, dressed head-to-toe in designer labels. Steve is the admired successful businessman who spends most of his time at the golf course and has it all: a gorgeous wife, big house and an endless supply of high-tech toys. Jen and Mick rule their new school as they embody all that is hip and trendy - cool clothes, fast cars and the latest gadgets. But as the neighbors try to keep up with the Joneses, none are prepared for the truth about this all-to-perfect family.

Filming Locations: An unnamed golf course in Spokane, Washington, (2) Various locations in Alpharetta, Georgia, and (3) A high school in Marietta, Georgia.
