Geocache Description:

The notorious pirate, Captain Scuttle Tew was being chased by the OLD ENGLISH ship HMS GATEWAY.  Knowing he could not escape and before he was captured, he hid his swag under the red stone, 13 places from the stockade fortress of the disreputable, big, green garbage eater.

(While there, take a few minutes to stop in.  Tell them A Disabled Vet sent you.)


(My GPS is a Garmin Nuvi.  I set it on the cache and get one set of coordinates.  Walk away, come back and get different coordinates.  These coordinates are an average between those from the Garmin and Google Maps.)

 Before he was hanged, Tew vowed that his swag would remain hidden forever.  Just before the trap door sprung, the hangman asked if Tew had any last words.  He looked at a woman in the crowed and said “I owes ye for the jolly night, I pays in full today: Trash in front, 13 left, 5 to the right, bend down and see the sight.”  The trap door sprung and Captain Scuttle Tew was forever suspended ‘tween Heaven and Hell.
