Grandma - Grandpa's House

All Kids enjoyed going to their Grandma and Grandpa's house.

Many lasting memories were gathered at 1433 Elmira. Like sleeping with Grandma, helping her with the wash with the old 'wringer' washer, helping Grandpa feed the chickens, setting on the porch swing and watching the circus that would be across the street.

They moved into the house in 1930 and the house was in the family until 1990's. The city of Aurora tore town the block of homes and business to rebuild Aurora's Colfax Area.

The cache is "located" in the area where the backyard between the house and chicken coop and garage.

The cache is a small container. Please bring your own pen. The best time to do this cache was be on 'Off Office Hours' and on the week-ends.

A drive up and grab.

I enjoyed the background story for the cache. It's hard to imagine this was Grandma and Grandpa's backyard. Even though I grabbed this cache on a Saturday morning, the parking lot was very full and I parked in one of the last open spots. I had this cache in my to-do list as it fills a little hole for my Jasmer matrix challenge, so thanks for placing this cache when you did!
Cheers!
