There is nothing hidden at the posted coordinates. You must solve the puzzle below to determine the coordinates of the cache.
About 16 years ago I started caching with my mother and father. Then I had about a 3,000 day gap of finds. A little over 5 years ago I started caching again with my daughter. In the last 18 months I've found about 850 caches and solved about 75 puzzles. I created and launched a few puzzles over the last few months and I've been thinking a lot about my favorite puzzles and ideas for making something for other cachers. This cache is the eleventh in what I hope is a series of caches throughout the winter of 2023. Be sure to save the bonus information from the geochecker for the winter season finale. On with the show...
We have to start somewhere. When I was a child I went to a party with my parents and grandparents. We danced in circles and had cake served by my grandmother. She’s the one who helped me create this puzzle. Here’s what you need to know to get started on finding this cache. Once you find it, perhaps you’ll celebrate year after year after year.
