GC3D07 -- Heritage Park Portsmouth, RI This very small park was the site of the largest battle in New England during the Revolutionary War. |
Not much of interest in the cache. Took the largest object - the horse - to make room for the Buzzy travel bug found in Boston. Also left 2 six-packs of CacheCards. |

GC2B34 -- Albro Woods -- Middletown, RI Another small town forest. |
Left the Fire Eating Nietzsche CD found in the Walnut Place cache as well as 2 six-packs of CacheCards. Took the sea manatee and exchanged 2 bucks for a pair of Where's George bills. I've been planning to take up that habit as well. |

GC1951 -- The Witch Hunt -- Portsmouth, RI After two nothing-special sites, this turned out to be one of my favorite cache locations. Again, I would have never found it unless Geocaching. The location was an interesting history as well. |
The site is near a breached dam built for Glen Farm. A stream cuts a deep ravine in the rock on its way to the sea. The site is littered with ruins and junk, like this abandoned hang- glider. |

The inside of the old pumping station is covered with graffiti. |
I took the lion in the barrel; left globe pen/bubbler from Lowell cache as well as 2 six-packs of CacheCards. |
