Geocache Description:


The cache is at N38 AB.CDE, W121 FG.HIJ. It is NOT at the posted coordinates, but it is within two miles. Parking is nearby, but for the best parking, you will have to cross the street.

It's summertime, which among many other things is a time for family reunions. At this year's mythical Crane family reunion, one of the attendees organized a puzzle, where all the participants had to bring the definition or clue for any six-letter word that had a certain characteristic. One example entry was: Davis, CA geocacher with 190+ unknown hides big smile

Here's what other folks brought:
Aunt Agnes brought the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the body
Brother Bob brought a natural underground space large enough for a human to enter
Cousin Cal brought LPGA's "Big Mama"
Dad brought understood by few; mysterious or secret
Eddie's Ex brought Bizet's final opera
Fiona's Fiance brought Number Two on Kringle's team
Grandma brought Clang command to index and cross-reference C++ source code
Hannah's Husband brought a stroke in pin pool that leaves only the center pin standing and thereby wins the game
Ike's Intended brought suffered nitrogen narcosis while scuba diving
Jessica's "Just-A-Friend" brought an erosive or spreading sore



You saw what I did there. You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
