Anyone attending this or know more about the geocaching listed?? I got back to our house too late today to call the Historical Society. This text is from a sign at the entrance to the Farm. Photo of sign put up in the gallery. Can you tell we did the cache in there today? :)

Hadn't hear about this--we did do the Pettingill cache last year--it was well worth the hike in!
