Those were the days. I walked home from school for lunch everyday. Mom had hot soup, a sandwich, and a glass of milk waiting for me. My favorite was alphabet soup. I would try to find all 26 letters and also spell words. Mom didn’t serve it often. She said that I dawdled too much and it got cold. (Never heard of microwaves back then.) Well, now you can create a soup of caches you have found, one beginning with each of the 26 letters of the alphabet. Read on...
Minnesota Challenge:
Alphabet Soup |
|
The challenge: to find a Cache in the State of Minnesota beginning with each letter of the alphabet on or after January 1, 2008.
To complete this cache:
|
1.
|
Create a public bookmark called "Minnesota Challenge: Alphabet Soup": |
|
|
|
-
|
Include this cache in your bookmark; since you haven’t found it yet, it doesn’t count – you will need another “M” cache |
|
- |
Keep this bookmark public for a minimum of 3 months after completing the Challenge |
|
- |
Include one Minnesota cache you have found for each letter of the alphabet |
|
- |
In the cache comments, include the date you found the cache |
|
|
|
|
|
2.
|
Successfully find and log a cache (no events) beginning with each letter of the alphabet. The letter must be the first letter of the cache name. Examples: |
|
|
|
- |
Zebra Stripes = Z |
|
- |
The Zebra's Stripes = T |
|
- |
Extra Zebras = E |
|
- |
Xtra Zebra Stripes = X |
|
- |
“Blurry Zebra Stripes” = B |
|
- |
1 More Striped Zebra = 1, so it doesn’t count for anything! |
|
- |
One More Zebra Stripe = O |
A look at your alphabetized bookmark list will indicate whether or not you have each letter
