Geocache Description:

In honour of St. Patrick's Day, Evil St. Paddy is going to treat you with the Seventeen Days of Green Series.

There are 16 caches with clues that will lead you to a final 17th cache.

These will be mostly C&D's. I do warn however, that there will be a few puzzles along the way too; don't worry -- they're FUN!

hard to find and lucky to have

March is the month of spring (20th to be exact). What do we think of when we think of March -- we think green, we think Irish, we think St. Patrick's, and we think spring! Hey, did you know that's how St. Patrick's became so associated with Green? LOL!

Hope you enjoy this series that will bring you a variety of 'green' places, or is that places associated with St. Patrick's? Eh, either way, journey on -- you'll soon find a connection! You might even find some place you want to visit on St. Patrick's day!

PUZZLE TIME: I know you remembered to collect all those codes and you've been waiting patiently for the day to come when you could use them....wondering what evil trick Evil St. Paddy has up her sleeve this time. Well wonder no more.

There's a trick to those LETTER/NUMBER combinations. Did you figure it out? Hmmmmm....if not go back to grade school. What is today? I don't know that I could S-P-E-L-L it out any more plainly. Yeah, yeah, I know...you already knew that.

Some duplicate letters:
Alphabetically speaking the first two duplicate sets will be obvious where to place them.
Alphabetically speaking the last two duplicate sets -- HINT: place the LOWEST number before the FINAL P

Yes, I did have one more trick for you....some elementary math. To those coordinates, you will have to ADD the MAGIC number. You do know what that is right??!!!???!!





**PLEASE NO NIGHT CACHING ON THIS ONE.
Note: The cache is NOT hidden on any grave marker or grave site, nor is it at or on any headstones.
If there is a service going on, or folks are visiting their loved ones when you arrive, please be respectful and come back at a later time. Your understanding and compassion for those folks will be appreciated. Please do not disturb any nearby graves. Thank you.
