Geocache Description:

This is the second in the puzzle series.  This will teach you some of the ways to find coordinates when you spot a picture in the description.

Note about final location: Please respect the wishes of the property owner and do not enter when gate is closed.  STAY AWAY FROM THE FENCE BY THE CACHE.  There is electricity on the other side of it, and I don't want any kids getting zapped by it!!!


Okay, below you see a picture of a little pie that I baked for my son.  In it, I have hidden the coordinates in three seperate spots.  After all, this is a learning experience. 

Picture Perfect Pie

So, spot #1 is in the properties of the picture.  To find this: save the picture to your desktop, then open the properties by right clicking on the picture and choosing properties.  You will find the coordinates listed in the tag section.

Spot #2 is also in the properties but buried a bit deeper.  Click on the Comments section, and you will spot the coordinates again.

Spot #3 is more evil (but not as evil as someone can get).  Take the picture you downloaded and open it with Paint on your PC (Sorry Mac users, but I will happily edit and add your process here if someone cares to elaborate on it).  You will see that I have superimposed the coordinates on a section of the picture.

So, now you know of at least three ways (I've actually hidden 5) someone can hide the coordinates.  Please enjoy the cache and location.  It's a great family place.
