[Chaos-l] Cedar fork falls

[Robert Nielsen]

One of the best things about Cedar Falls park used to be the "Bad Music 
Mausoleum".   I used to be more active in geocaching ... and the 
mausoleum was a geocache where people could leave CDs (remember those?) 
of music they were embarrassed that they had bought back during the 
disco craze ...

I think some people also took some of them as well.

There's a similar "book" geocache near the library ... if you know where 
to look!
