This cache has been archived.

West Texas Reviewer: Cache Owner (CO) has not responded, so the cache is being archived to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking new cache placements. If the owner wishes to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future (not to exceed 30 days from the date of this entry), just contact me (by e-mail), and assuming it still meets the current Guidelines, I will consider unarchiving this cache.

Please be advised this is not a guarantee that this geocache will be unarchived. Many factors will go into my decision. The most important of which is how you responded to geocachers who tried to communicate with you regarding the problem(s) with this geocache hide and how you communicated with me, the West Texas Reviewer.

US 83 THE ROAD SOUTH:

THIS ROAD RUNS FROM CANADA TO PANAMA,, SOMETIMES CALLED THE PAN-AMERICAN HIGHWAY....
IT RUNS FROM VIRDEN, MANITOBA, CANADA (FROM Hwy #1 SOUTH IS CALLED 83)SOUTH TROUGH TH U.S. ENTER MEXICO AT BROWNSVILLE, TX / MATAMOROS, MX (Hwys 180, 38, & 101) THEN TO IT'S END TO YAVIZA PANAMA.....
IT COMPLETELY DIVIDES THE COUNTRY (NORTH TO SOUTH)....

US 83 WAS BUILT TO MOVE SUPPLIES FROM US AND CANADA TO THE BIG DIG IN PAMAMA.... AS A KID I DISCOVERED THAT THE US WENT BEFORE AND BUILT WATER AND SEPTIC SYSTEMS ALONG THE ROUTE.... TO KEEP THE PEOPLE THE WERE TRANSPORTING FRON ILLNESS..... THE SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN WORKING , OR NOT WORKING, FOR A LONG TIME... GOOD ADVICE IS TO PLAY IT SAFE....
ALSO MR. SANBORN, OF THE CHASE AND SANBORN FAME, PLACES CAFES WITH CLEAN SAFE WATER AND CLEAN RESTROOMS ALONG THE WAY AND THEN ALL OVER MEXICO.... AND THEY ARE STILL SAFE TODAY..... GOOD TRAVELS.....
