oft shall the widow’s tear be shed
oft shall fond parents mourn their dead;
the orphan here shall kneel and weep”

This was a virtual cache with some history to it up in Gettysburg.
With all my Christmas stuff done, I headed up to this one several days before Christmas.

The place was very quiet and the visit was really quite humbling. I encourage everyone to go and appreciate what so many did, so we do not forget.

What lies beFORE me?

This cache was originally placed by Stripes17 on December 27, 2003. It was adopted by Jmatt50 on November 13, 2005. This rubbermaid container contains Stripes17′s first hidden cache. It’s name implies it’s golf theme. It was restocked by Jmatt50, after adoption, with some golf related items, including: tee packs, a couple sleeves of golf balls, a greens repair tool from the Las Vegas Country Club, a putt alignment gadget, a golf tool gadget, an emergency hooded pouncho plus a fresh log book & pen. Also included in this cache are some CITO bags. If you see any trash in the area of the cache and are so inclined, feel free to take a bag and practice CITO.
