I grew up in this area of Edmonton before a series of moves
including Wabamum and Stony Plain before moving back for a second
time in the old house. After finishing University (University of
Alberta, B.Ed. Class of 1998) I moved to Ft. Resolution, NT and a
few other places before settling in Regina, SK. Don't laugh, I was
one of the few to be moving from Alberta to Saskatchewan before it
was cool to do so.
The posted co-ordinates are bogus. They belong to an old corner
store that my Dad took me to frequently. The store was owned by a
guy named Earl who would sometimes let me have a free Revel –
that was what I always got there. About a year after moving away
the first time, Earl was killed by thieves robbing his store. It
was the first time I knew someone who had died. It's scary how, in
seconds, life can change so dramatically.
Over time that store became another corner store, a hair salon
with a huge limo in front of it, and a real estate office. Looks
like it's having a second chance as a hair salon.

there simply to make transcription easier. If you found this cache
when it was linked to a cache in Regina - the puzzle hasn't
changed, nor has the location.
