Geocache Description:

THIS CACHE IS AT THE COORDINATES, wheelchair accessible and can be reached from the sidewalk. To claim the smiley, you must have found or find/discovered or discover 7 TB's or coins that have the 7 primary colors of the rainbow somewhere in the title. The colors are: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.

Simple enough cache and, ironically, lacking in color or creativity. At some point I'll have to change that, but for now it's just a 35mm cannister. It's black which, technically, is the perfect mixture of all the colors -- or that's what I read somewhere, so there you go. There used to be another cache here and I've always kind of liked this spot.

Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain, which caused ROY G BIV a bit of pain. ROY G BIV stands for the order of the colors of the rainbow -- Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.

List in your log the TB's or coins that have the seven colors of the rainbow in the title. You may use any TB's or coins you have found.

TB's or coins that you own-slash-are in your personal collection may not be included in this list. This is to get people out there looking for and maybe sending out a few more TB's.

Only one color may be used per title.

To keep this a bit more fun than drudgery, I won't quibble if you find suitable color names/synonyms for indigo or violet. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, and Blue are required, however.

Terrain and difficulty are really a 1, but listed as 4 to reflect the challenges you may face finding the caches holding these TB's and coins.

MUGGLE HIGH AREA AT TIMES AND YOU WILL BE VISIBLE FROM SEVERAL ANGLES. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE NICE TO THE LANDSCAPING.
