drives: I can't seem to find anywhere in the GeoCaching Guidelines that says "just take a picture of the log, you don't really need to sign it."

Bye Felicia. Tired of the way the game has turned sour.

Geocache Description:

Ninetyeighth in the Famous People (FP) Series - Faith Ford

Faith Ford (born Faith Alexis Ford on September 14, 1964, in Alexandria, Louisiana) is an American television and film actress, best known for her role as Corky Sherwood on Murphy Brown and Hope on Hope and Faith.

Hope & Faith was an American sitcom that aired for three seasons on ABC. For its first two seasons the show was part of a revived TGIF comedy block.

Ironically the show starred Faith Ford as Hope and Kelly Ripa as Faith. Ford plays a homemaker with a husband (played by Ted McGinley) and three children. Ripa plays her sister, a soap opera star whose character is killed off, leading her to move in with her sister's family. The show is based in part on the life of its creator, Joanna Johnson, a former cast member of The Bold and the Beautiful. The show featured guest stars such as Tony Curtis, Dean Cain, Robert Wagner, Regis Philbin, Kathie Lee Gifford, and Mark Consuelos (Ripa's husband).

The show was primarily filmed at New York City's, Silvercup East, a sister studio to Silvercup Studios, to accommodate Ripa's schedule with Live with Regis and Kelly.

You will be challenged here to find the elusive container. It is just a short walk from parking, and the terrain is not that difficult. However, you will need all your caching skills to discover the hidden treasure. Size? Well it's smaller than a breadbox but bigger than a micro, although there is a only a log so be sure and BYO .

Note: there's room for travel bugs and small trade items.

The FTF prize is NOT located in the cache and will be awarded 'post facto' on an individual basis. In fact, not only the FTF will be prized, but all other finders prior to August 25th, 2007, will be recognized at the drives Milestone Achievement event.

Coordinates were determined with a WAAS enabled Garmin GPSmap 60CSx and an eTrex Legend Cx, averaged over a 10 minute span to an accuracy of 4.1'. Just for reference, both units agreed on the N coordinates, but differed on the W. The Legend had the posted coordinates while the GPSmap showed the final to be W096 35.390. I trust the Legend the most, but would be interested in learning the readings from finders, if there are any. There are other, easier caches in this park so don't get too frustrated if this one evades you at first.
