Geocache Description:


This cache is NOT located at the posted coordinates! I will give you part of the coordinates: The cache is between the 42nd and 43rd parallels north. The cache is between the 91st and the 92nd lines longitude. You will need to figure out the rest. While driving north to work today, I was thinking about days gone by. Astronaut David Hilmers was born more than 69 years ago. The number of days that he spent in orbit was north of 20 days. One day, I would like to meet Astronaut Hilmers. This evening, my mind wondered. I would have thought it would go west. But no, my thoughts drifted to the 1876 Republican National Convention in Cincinnati, Ohio. Frederick Douglass addressed the convention. I wonder if he spoke on the second day. That same year, the Democratic National Convention was further west, in St. Louis, Missouri. After all of these thoughts, I decided that I had to place a cache today to remember this date.
