As you hike down the path towards the cache coordinates, you
notice that someone has scrawled a message on a concrete barricade
with a Sharpie: BEWARE: One of the guards always tells the
truth, one of them always lies, one of them alternates between the
two, and one craves the taste of human flesh! Ominous.
Hesitantly, you press onward. Just off of the path, in a small
clearing, you find four guards seated at a round table, playing
First to
Find. Each guard is wearing a shirt with the Groundspeak
logo, but each shirt is a different color: Orange, Yellow, Blue,
and Green. You brandish your hiking pole menacingly and prepare for
a fight, but they just look up at you and nod amicably. "Hello,"
says the guard in the Yellow shirt.
"Er, hi," you say. "Um, don't mind me; I was just hunting for a
cache."
The guard wearing Orange says, "I suppose you want the
combination to the padlock, then? I'm getting really tired of
people asking about that."
"He's lying," says Yellow.
"No," says Green, "you're the one lying."
"Graaaaagh," says Blue.
"Great," you sigh. "What's the combination, then?"
"Well," says Orange, "the first digit is 8."
"No it isn't," says Green. "It's 3."
Yellow shakes his head. "You're full of it."
"Don't interrupt. The second digit now -- that's 4," says
Green.
"Graaaaagh," says Blue.
"It's 1, in fact," Orange.
Yellow grumbles, "It's definitely more than that -- it's 6."
"And the last digit is 2," says Orange, ignoring Yellow.
"Don't listen to him," says Green. "It's 7."
"No, it is 2, I'm sure of it," says Yellow.
"Graaaaagh," says Blue.
You roll your eyes. "Great. Thanks a lot, guys."
I hope you'll enjoy this fun twist to the local End of the
Road series.
This road used to be the entrance to Florida's Turnpike from
US-441 and SR-84 before I-595 was built. As you hike to the cache,
you can easily see where the toll booths used to stand.
You do not need to enter the mobile home park to find the
cache. There is no way to get to the cache from the mobile home
park without trespassing. Stay on SW 30 St and park at the concrete
barricades.
NOTE: You must sign the log to claim a find for this cache.
Just finding the container doesn't count.
