Geocache Description:

This cache is a camo taped spice bottle. It is hidden in Memorial Park.

When placing this cache, we thought of those soldiers who have given their time, energy, and lives for our country. While you search for this cache think about someone in your family who had done the same. You may want to include in your log a story about them, or yourself if you were in the armed forces.

As always, we name our caches after songs, and this one, by Pete Seeger, is melancholy and nostalgic for us.
