One of my all time favorite caches is "Crazy" Cache located just outside of Camden, Tennessee. I begun working for the state in 1996 and in 1997, I was given the caseload for (Camden) Benton County. Benton County is an hour from my home office in Dresden and 30 minutes from Paris, after I was transferred to the Paris office. My caseload rarely exceeded 10 cases and most were in custody. But being that I worked the court, I was in the county one to two times a week. With the distance from the office, more than once I was placed with time to kill between visits or court.
I had seen the movie about Patsy Cline and recall the movie mentioning her plane went down in the bluffs after leaving Dyersburg. Later, I began to wonder about the statement in the movie, the area around Dyersburg is flat....No Bluffs! A few months into working Benton County, I was the sign about the plane crash and followed it to the shrine and boulder. After I began caching in 2005, I wanted to place a cache at this location. But, I don't work the county anymore.
In November of 2005, I saw the new cache pop up and put it on my do-to list. Having the day off on November 11, 2005, I took a drive and sweep all the caches in Benton County and found this cache. Took the opportunity to make pictures too. In my opinion, this is one of the top 10 caches in West Tennessee.

This is a neat cache. I found it on April 14th after stopping in Camden, TN to meet with my boss. It is one of the best caches I've run across. I enjoyed reading the information and seeing the memorial boulder also. Very nicely done.
