Girls wear crinoline petticoats and smile at you. Three good buddies go get into mischief with you. Life is sweet at 17 - then you taste the bitter as a pallbearer for one of them. Geocaching later reminds you of him because Sonny liked the challenge of the hunt and thrill of the find even then. So here is a cache that is a tribute to both him and the sweet and bitter of life. This is our first cache. It is somewhat handicaped friendly, but wheelchairs may find a bit of a problem, especially when wet. We hope it measures up and life is sweet for you.
Find the first waypoint by going to the above coordinates where you will find Sonny’s stone. There you will find (with the phrase “Gone So Soon”) two dates.
Take notice of the last date (checksum=16). Take the last two digits of that date as the number to use in your calculations below.
Divide that number by two and add the result to the decimal portion of the N minutes above.
Divide the number you just added by two.
Subtract that number from the decimal portion of the W minutes above.
Now go find the cache and smile.
A picture of Sonny playing his band instrument is the background for this cache.
The very small (spice bottle) cache is covered in local camo less than 250 feet from the stone you found. You do NOT have to cross any fences to find the cache.
Bring a pen/pencil. Please rehide carefully.
