Dropped at this cache as a way of passing on the coin.
It goes to "Always & Forever 5", who own this cache, which is near their home.
This family geocaches together. Two young girls and their younger brother are frequently seen, by other cachers, walking bike trails and woodland trails with their mom and dad. Sometimes a wagon comes in handy for the longer trecks. |

This new cache appeared as I was logging all my finds from vacation. I quickly went out and logged a FTF. A nice way to end a vacation. Gotta go back to work tonight. |

Located near Clear Lake, Iowa. This cache is a virtual cache. In 1959, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and "The Big Bopper" were killed in a plane crash at this site. A 1/2 mile walk through a farmers field will get you to the monument that was build on the fence line. |

We can tell we're getting further North. While driving through Blue Earth, Minn. We saw a park with two wintertime ice rinks in it. One was for hockey, the other was not to be used for hockey. A hillside in the same park had earth birms running down it, with fencing. It looked like the safest sledding/tobagganing hill I've ever seen. |

This cache, located in NW Iowa, was once the highest point in Iowa. Then modern surveys found a farm feedlot a few miles away was a few feet higher. There are other reasons for this being an Earthcache, but I'll let you read about it for yourself. |

This one seemed to be hidden in the middle of nowhere near Worthing, S. Dakota. But after a day of travel seeing the sights, it was worth the leg stretch needed to find it. |
