Found my Geo name back in my hometown of Hohenwald, TN. Had to fly home for a Christmas visit and this waymark. That made it a sweet trip.

The small town of Hohenwald was originally founded by Swiss settlers who called it New Switzerland. Eventually the German workers who came to work in the nearby iron and phosphate mines grew the tiny community into a town they named for the heavily forested ridges surrounding the area. Hohenwald, "High Forrest", became my home after marriage. Even though I live out west now this is home.
These coordinates we're found on Switzerland Rd in the Swiss Colony just west of downtown. Only cows to watch me.
