Are ya Payin Attention? Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

BadAndy: Checked on this cache today. Tne ammocan was still where it should be but some of the waypoints were missing/damaged. I retrieved the ammocan and will be placing a new cache soon using a similar method on the waypoints.

This cache has been alot of fun and had a great run over the last year.

Theres something about an urban ammocan that just makes me smile. Look for a similar cache soon.

Geocache Description:

Quasi mystery multicache combo.

When I was a kid, my Dad had a somewhat unique way to punish my brothers and I when we screwed up. He would sit us down, all in a row on the couch, and lecture us on the negative aspects of our deeds.

As he paced back and forth, he would watch us each intently as he lectured. He called it a discussion, we tried to pay attention. Given the 7.5 minute attn span of young boys, eventually one of us would drift off into a daydream during this process and lose focus. Bingo. That was Dads cue to say "Are you Payin Attention?". At this point, we all knew what was coming. He would calmly explain that this was a very important discussion with a valuable lesson to be learned, so valuable in fact, he felt a need to begin again from the very beginning.

Sometimes, he'd be nearly finished when this happened. We'd all groan and glare at the daydreaming lackey responsible for our torture.

This cache was inspired by this lesson learned in my youth.

It's all about paying attention.

It's all about paying attention.

There are 3 sets of coords you must find. None are hidden. They are all in plain sight, easy to see. No bushwhacking, crawling under bushes, turning over rocks. No twisting sprinkler heads, or film cannisters here. There is a twist however. If you don't pay attention, you will be doomed to repeat yourself. Over and over and over.

The final cache is a traditional Ammocan, hidden in the traditional fashion, filled with traditional swag. First finder gets a Princeton Tec VorTec headlight.

Now.....Are ya Payin Attention?????
