Thanks for bringing me to this spot. I would have never have known this place was here without this cache thanks.
#2298 @ 0947 hrs. Caching with Nanu x 2 while heading home to So Cal after vacationing in FL, NC and TN. Exploring the Memphis area before continuing our journey west. Wasn't sure this was the right location until we turned the corner. Beautiful location. Enjoyed the sites, attempted to sign the book (pen was dry) and found the needed answer. Emailed CO with our answer. Thanks for bringing us to this location and TFTC.
Visiting with my kids, the Team Bug Bug & Tiny family while returning from an Orlando World vacation adventure that included 14-states along the I-10 and then up north to North Carolina and then states along the I-40. We are now heading home to California. It has been a long drive, but well worth it. Lots of fascinating things to see and lots of caches to get. Enjoyed the different types of country along the way and especially enjoyed seeing friends and family. What an awesome place to visit. So glad that the geodaughter put it on the tour list. Thanks for bringing us here.
This is such a beautiful place! I'm so glad I came to visit this beautiful man-made cave. I thank lookingUPward for the recommendation. TFTC!
P.S. Will email shortly.

[blue]Well it was the first weekend of what I'm sure will be many trips from Iowa to Alabama as Jr. begins his freshman year at the University of Alabama. We left on Friday and then got him into his room on Saturday. Then on Sunday, The Bride and I came all the way back with some caching along the way. Overall the trip didn't yield a lot of caches because we were so busy, but on the way home I was able to find one in all 6 six that we travel through and then made a last minute decision to take a detour and go over to Illinois to make it 7 states in one day.
Started out the day going for a couple of FTF's that might be available. Yikes went down this road, still not sure what it was if it was a logging road or what, but let me tell you The Bride was none too happy with me starting our day with this. Worked our way over to Tupelo Mississippi the birthplace of Elvis. Ironically, we were traveling through the weekend of his death 36 years ago. Then off to Memphis...the actual home of Elvis. Did the oldest cache in the state and a couple of others and on we went. Then grabbed one in Arkansas and off to Missouri. Grabbed a couple WIGs and was able to get The Arch. Then one of the biggest decisions on the long day was to detour over to Quincy Illinois to go to an event. That was way cool to meet so many new people. They were extremely nice to wait on me. Their event started at 1pm and I didn't get there until almost 3pm and there had to be still 20 of them hanging around. Started talking and find out that QYC knows Hill Folk....oh I'm so sorry for you QYC. So we gave Mrs. Hill Folk a call while there just to hear what excuse she had for not coming to Quincy to visit today. It's always going to be a classic. Tried my best to recruit others to come to the Kansas City Picnic this weekend as a strong probability that the event will become a MEGA. Then grabbed a couple of others in the Quincy area and started to head to Iowa. One last thing in Quincy...that city is okay in my books when you have one street named OHIO and the very next street named STATE. That folks is brilliant. Found a couple on the way home and stopped to eat.
It was good to get home to see Buckette the lone child now who will get all of our attention...oh lucky her. I'm hoping in future trips to get more caches than I got on this one, but I'm proud of the 7 states in one day. I was able to leave several of my signature [red]bucknuts pencils [blue]in caches. Thanks for all the great caches-signed log. Answers sent to cache owner.
Oops almost forgot...of all things I leave a big dent in the rental car backing into a light pole in Alabama over the weekend.. Still not sure how I did that but one more thing for me to get in trouble for.

Wow this is one of the coolest virtual caches I have done! Thanks for bringing me here!
Found with my family on the way to Shelby Farms. My eight year old daughter didn't want to get out of the van and go. After seeing all the sights she told me how cool it was. There was a pretty big frog in the pond. Thanks for the cache!
this is amazing. lived in Memphis many times but first visit to this place, thanks
Found on a trip to Memphis with family (Mom, Allyson (AG62), and Isabella) my third mini vacation while I’m on vacation. This was suggested by two fellow cachers. This is a awesome place. Gets a favorite from me. Email sent. Signed log “The Red KREWE” (TRK). TFT Keep on CACHING.
