Another puzzle cache, this one was born of a solution I tried while working on Cited Honorees. Thanks for the inspiration, Essiar!
The Central Texas geocachers are a group of really great people, but I still have yet to meet some of them. The local geocachers I have met are: TreyB, The Outlaw, Moosiegirl, Mrs. Captain Picard, Gadget Girl, HiDude_98 and GeoMire (aka The Tush Brothers), Doc Geo & wife, Stratman & the Hoot, Deafdillos, gtbevo, filler & bcat, Tablespoons, AnthonyV, buzzardcheater, Waterweasel, Tygress, QueenZelda & Cub Boy and InspectorGadget.
Sure I met others when I was at TC06, but the motherboard in my brain overheated that weekend due to all the aliases and real names and those files got corrupted. I have to meet most of those folks over again in order to re-input. So I will be attending as many events as I can. See you there!
For the purpose of maintaining this puzzle in its original state, Stratman & the Hoot are a registered account now under the name of SeeWhyMan. Keep Stratman & the Hoot in the puzzle but do not eliminate it because it doesn't come up as a registered user.
