Geocache Description:

Built 75 years ago with money provided by the late Hiram Bellows, Bellows Free Academy St. Albans is a second home to nearly 1100 students each year for 178 days. In recognition of my departing from this institution this June, that has occupied nearly 4 years of my life, I place this cache, here by naming it "Another Beautiful Day at the Academy!"

Despite school hours being 7:30 to 2:30 searching for this cache before 4:00 could be a real risk, as extreme stealth would be required. With 2800 student and administrative eyes watching, you may not succeed. This cache is quite searchable in the dark.

Here I give you two special numbers, 9649 and 5432. If you would like to learn what to do with them, its time to sharpen your pencils and hit the books just as many others are most likely doing at this instant (provided it’s a weekday during the school year of course!) and figure out what in the world to make of this mess...

Parking can be found just about anywhere, but the given coordinates will help you find the place if you are unfamiliar with the area.

Please, Please, take notice when you remove the log from the container, as it MUST go back in the same way. You will most definately need your own pen for this one. Under no circumstances are you to share hints about this cache with fellow cachers. It is the puzzle that makes it difficult, giving hints defeat the purpose. Do not post anything that is related to the puzzle, logs containing such matter will be deleted.

Just a side note for those who may wonder: The container is an old clean High Pressure Liquid Chromotography vial used in chemistry.

Good Luck and be stealthy!
