Corn-bred Corn-fed Geocachers

One question, though--why a long-sleeve flannel shirt?

To keep from getting all scratched up and to prevent sunburn. I think long sleeve cotton was often worn too. I had friends that wore T-shirts though and just got scratched and tan/burnt.

Those "corn spiders" were fun too, huh?

Not to mention how itchy walking through a field of corn can make you. UGH.

Hide it, and they will come.

I was from Minnesota and my first job ever was detassling corn also. Not sure why they turned Carleenp down. I was only 5ft tall when I did that I did have to jump up some to reach some of the taller plants... I think I did that for 65 cents an hour!

 

I don't see how you can detassle and geocache at the same time. We were moving through corn rows so fast I could barely see anything...

Perhaps if there is a ever a cache theme about winemaking, we can look to Sept1c Tank for expert, accurate advice! 

Oh no. Everyone knows that the best wineries are on the North Fork of Long Island, NY.

Oh Please. The best wineries are in California.

I thought the best wine was from Western NY. Dontcha want to head over to Silver Creek and hit the grape festival?

Because Orangutans can be hired for only 65 cents an hour.

Well it was 30 years ago when gasoline was like 30 cents a gallon...I'm starting to feel ancient

thanks everyone for your feedback.

I've compiled your input (comments and stories) into a logbook for Uniquely Iowa cache, and I'm locking the thread now as a final detail.

thanks again.
