Geocache Description:


Halloween Herrings

This not so typical Red Herring cache is definitely NOT at the posted coords- along busy Rt. 1 in Rehoboth Beach. They decided to "lighten up" for Halloween and make it easier to find them.

Well, the Red Herrings had a great summer and a really nice Labor Day reunion. They've been kind of relaxing since then and a few of them decided to go out "trick or treating!" So they put together this easy puzzle for you. Which will it be- a trick or a treat? Maybe a little of both?

After their nice reunion with their long-lost close cousin, they knew that some cachers would be after them again. So, they all climbed back in the van & decided to go to ground so that they wouldn't be found. The Red Herrings disguised themselves so well that they figured they could use the disguises for trick or treating and wouldn't be recognized. They love chocolate! Can you find their new hideout? Try offering them some chocolate candy.

Clues can be anywhere and you must find two things to locate these Red Herrings- maybe!

Have fun, don't drink too much, & always carry chocolate
