Geocache Description:


The cache is not located at the given coordinates. Find and solve the puzzle to determine the location of the cache.

BlooeyBug has found another hobby and to celebrate, we're going to hide another geocache! This time the clues are not on the Geocaching site (at least for now). But, you do not need to create an account or log in or buy anything to view the puzzle.

Special Notes about the 2020 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 2021, as it looks like we won't have one for 2020). The real challenge is to see whether I will have enough time to create a 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: Extra credit if you find one of the clue items! I fully expected somebody to solve this one before the cache was published because the puzzle was available the previous evening and I made the cache title available in a few places as well, but the puzzle didn't even get published until 11am, and it seems that nobody thought to look for it before then.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
