Description   EN   

Snook is the only town for me. Yes, someone once wrote a song about it!

Info from the nearby Historical Marker (that's also a Waymark): Settled 1880s by Czech immigrants. First called "Sebesta's Corner". In 1895 named "Snook" for John Snook, who helped secure post office. Soon had a one-room school, a "masova schuza" (slaughterhouse), a cooperative store, and lodge for "Czechoslovak Benevolent Society".

I am doing away with my cross-posted caches.  This one can still be found on geocaching.com since I adopted it from there in the first place.

My Geo-Wife, Brenda had spotted this one on the ground just before I steped on it. After signing the log we put it back in the only logical/typical place a cache of this type should be. I do not think it will be on the ground any more and it should be a good "hunt-for" cache now as was intended before. Cache was in great shape as well.  This Cache Owner has sparked my intrest in "OPENCACHING" and I think this is a great thing because it gives me something else to do. Thank you NatinTxn!         Wink TFTC!

Getting some caches in the area after the event.  This one was easy since Wendel and Nanakitteh were there signing the log.  Nice to talk to them.

Arrived and looked where it should have been but could not find it.  Then went and looked at the tree across the driveway.  No luck there either.  Back to the first location for one last search.  Found the container on the ground.  Signed the log and put it back up in a higher location.  TFTC
