CONGRATULATIONS TO CJFISHMUSIC AND SPARKEY1964 FOR FTF!


I have several other hobbies besides Geocaching. One of them is a form of embroidery called "Counted Cross-Stitch". There is no stamped pattern on the fabric, rather one needs to count each "square" in the fabric and stitch X's, or parts of X's in those squares with the appropriate color of embroidery floss. The floss itself is part of the reason I enjoy this craft so much. It is bright and cheerful, and there are so many colors!

Some of my favorite colors are Lt. Straw, Lt. Peach and Variegated Delft Blue in the DMC brand. I also like Anchor brand's Medium Light Carnation. And another favorite is one of DMC's colors - Lt. Cornflower Blue. But there are many colors and manufacturers of thread available. I have even stitched a Travel Bug on a T-shirt pocket.

Parking at the final is a bit dicey, especially during the day. I suggest parking along the side streets about 500 feet to the east or north. You will be looking for a plastic cookie dough container approximately six inches in diameter by three inches deep, painted green. The find is simple, as the puzzle should be. There is an unactivated Travel Bug Tag for the FTF.



You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

(Note - this is a "Traveler friendly" cache - any Tb's or coins left here for any length of time will be given new travel papers, baggies/coin pouches and moved on.)

While you're at it grab benchmark JS1099 just down the street.
