Geocache Description:

The Cache is NOT at the above listed coordinates! Use the game of Monopoly to solve the puzzle and find the micro cache.

Monopoly was a favorite game of mine growing up. In fact, I still rather enjoy it. If you own the game of Monopoly, this should be fairly easy, if not, well it will much tougher. Either way good luck.

The following clues come from a typical game of Monopoly between The Dog and The Thimble. Solve the clues, plug in the numbers and away you go!

The FINAL is hidden at North 47.HF.CGE and West 119.BD.BAA

The game between Dog and Thimble has been going on for quite some time. It is now Dog's turn........

1. Dog is currently on Baltic Avenue and rolls a 3, which puts him on Oriental Avenue, which is owned by Thimble. How much does Dog have to pay in rent? $__ = A

2. Thimble is currently on Atlantic Avenue and rolls a 10, which puts him on Chance. He draws a card and has to Pay Poor Tax. How much did he pay? $1__ = B

3. Dog's turn. He rolls the dice and lands on States Avenue, which he already owns. What number on the dice did he throw? __ = C

4. Thimble's turn. He rolls a 6 and advances to Community Chest and draws a card. He has to Pay Doctor's Fee. How much did he pay? $5__ = D

5. Dog rolls an 8 and lands on Kentucky Avenue, which is owned by Thimble. There is also 1 house on the property. How much does Dog have to pay in rent? $__0 = E

6. Thimble rolls a 9 and advances to St. Charles Place, which is owned by Dog. There are 3 houses on the property. How much is rent? $__50 = F.

7. Dog rolls an 11 and advances to North Carolina Avenue, which is owned by Thimble. How much is the rent? $__6 = G

8. Thimble rolls a 7 and moves to Tennessee Avenue. It is unowned and he decides to buy it from the bank. How much does he pay? $__80 = H

That's it. Away you go. You're looking for a micro. Good luck.
