Geocache Description:

This is a micro cache hidden in beautiful downtown Phoebus, Virginia-Hampton's hidden treasure. There is no room for exchanges (not even for a Tidewater Troll
[:(] ) so please bring a pen.

In April 1607, English colonists aboard three ships - the Susan Constant, Godspeed and Discovery - found a safe harbor at Cape Comfort near the entrance to the great Chesapeake Bay. The colonists reveled in the beauty of the unspoiled land and enjoyed "fine and beautiful strawberries" and a "good store of mussels and oysters." These Englishmen went on to establish the Jamestown settlement nearby. Three years later, in 1610, colonists returned to the site of their original landing to found another settlement, known as Hampton, which is the oldest continuous English-speaking settlement in the United States.
