Logging Requirements:
1) Post two pictures with yourself and your GPS - one at a "Welcome to..." type of sign and one at a local landmark of your choice. If there is no welcome sign, please find something that identifies the town, such as a post office, train station, or such.

2) Post coordinates for one of the photos, along with the city and state / territory.

Each locale may only be logged once and each cacher may only log this cache once. However, multiple locations with the same name may be used. Locations must be cities, towns, states, territories or some sort of natural feature.

Thanks to spindocbob for pointing this story out to me:
Song takes man nearly everywhere
