This cache has been archived.

Silverback_Cacher: It appears to have been muggled a number of times recently (probably by the local groundskeeper) and I have just moved out of the area. Thanks for all who have visited the cache.

Geocache Description:

Do you know the difference between the Cavalry and Calvary?

Congrats to thenkengrene for his bazillionth FTF!!

According to Webster’s Dictionary the cavalry is an army component mounted on horseback or in modern warfare an army component moving in motor vehicles or helicopters and assigned to combat missions that require great mobility.  Calvary, on the other hand, is the name of the hill outside Jerusalem where Jesus was crucified.  These two words, while they might sound similar, have two very different meanings.
Although nearby you might often see LOTS of horses and people riding them there are not too many combat missions taking place here.  What you will see is a building that honors the second word and meaning.
Depending on the day and time of your approach, it could either be a muggle-rich or muggle-free environment.  Although on private property, the owners have given permission for the placement of this cache and the use of the nearby parking.  You will not get struck by lightning for parking here. 
This is a short multi-stage that shouldn’t take but a few minutes to track down, depending on your math.
Stage 1 – There are two numbers here.  Add the first to 493 and the second to 411 to get the last 3 for Stage 2
Stage 2 – The number here is multiplied by 44.33 and 45 to get the last 3 for the Final
Final – small container with room for item swapping and a log
