The cache is not located at the given coordinates. Solve the puzzle below to determine the coordinates of the cache.
We still have a few weeks to go, but I thought this might be a good place to sit down with your Norad tracker. But, it turns out that the park won't permit you to be here during the best viewing time; so you'll probably just have to solve this puzzle from home. So, let's see whether you can figure out what I'm looking for here (and perhaps more importantly if you can find the same list that I used).
- holidays.expand.liberally
- richest.products.served
- steered.fleet.lawn
- decorated.light.kind
- inert.souvenir.trots
- toys.galaxy.famines
- doll.stammered.select
- mascots.gong.deliverance
- turkeys.report.spines
- hoisted.gender.jolly
- settings.miracle.baseline
- resting.frosty.teddies
- pegged.chest.cargo
- vixens.libel.lyricism
- wider.bonnet.outdoors

Special Notes about the 2022 Puzzle Challenge: To be considered for Fastest Solver points, you must verify your solution with Certitude. Finders will receive Top Finder points when submitting Found It logs to the cache page. All "point" scoring is arbitrary, subject to change, at the discretion of the cache owner, and probably completely meaningless (unless you just want to be announced sooner at the celebration party, if one even happens in 2023, as we haven't had one for the past two years). The real challenge is to see whether I can even figure out how to create a new puzzle each month this year! To maintain fairness, hints should not be offered by the cache owner or other solvers until the fifteenth of the month.
Special Notes about this month's puzzle: I decided to add a minor twist this time. Park curfew is 10pm to 5am. Hmm, maybe this one is harder than I expected it to be. Or maybe because it took 44 hours to be published, all the locals have forgotten about KPC.
