Geocache Description:


New York Capital Region Geocachers


 

    When I was 10 years old or so I wanted to be an astronaut, as do a lot of other children. I was always looking up at the stars wondering, thinking, and dreaming. There was a time when I knew a lot of the names of constellations, and what time of the year they could be seen. It just seems like I don’t have the time anymore. I still find myself gazing up at the night’s sky but the star formations just don’t make much sense to me anymore, I guess I have lost some of my imagination.

    So to find this cache you must use a little imagination and a small amount of research and hopefully when you look up at the night’s sky maybe you will be able to see “Draco” The Dragon and not just a clump of stars.

The cache location is at

N   42 34.ABC
