Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES


This is part of the Squirrel Hill Puzzle geo- shapeseries. This series of puzzles should be relatively straightforward and are meant to be fun. If you need assistance, feel free to contact us.... but be prepared to tell us what you have tried! LOL

DSM-IV defines obsessive behavior as

  1. Recurrent and persistent thoughts, impulses, or images that are experienced, at some time during the disturbance, as intrusive and inappropriate and that cause marked anxiety or distress
  2. The thoughts, impulses, or images are not simply excessive worries about real-life problems
  3. The person attempts to ignore or suppress such thoughts, impulses, or images, or to neutralize them with some other thought or action
  4. The person recognizes that the obsessional thoughts, impulses, or images are a product of his or her own mind (not imposed from without as in thought insertion)

Does any of this sound familiar? No, of course not! HAHA This cache is a tribute to our obsessive "hobby". I think Logsplitter1 said it the best in setting up his "Obsession" series... "just a cache to keep the shakes away". Many a day the Pack got their fix from a Logy cache... which by the way seem to be everywhere and never ending! Thanks John! In order to get the coordinates for this cache, simply solve the puzzle below. Please remember that you will be in a residential neighborhood so exercise stealth. The cache is not on private property and is located between the sidewalk and the street. The local homeowner is aware of the placement. No night caching please. The correct coords and hint below should lead you right to it! Enjoy!
