Geocache Description:

Shortman and Dodger
I took Shortman and Dodger to a park to play. While they played I fiddled with my GPS. Shortman came over and asked where the box was and I told him there wasn’t one in this park. Let’s put one here was his answer. So Shortman and Dodger helped me place this cache.




The Park
This park is on the corner of Story Brook Road and Burlington Mall Road. This park is easy to see but hard to get to due to the fact the parking access is on Story Brook Road which is a one way coming out. To access it legally you need to come in Story Brook Road from Lexington Street. The park has a little playground and couple of ball fields behind it.

The Puzzle
At the listed coordinates you will find a covered picnic table. It was at that picnic table I told Shortman and Dodger to run across the field and find a hiding spot. Dodger took off at 55.4° and ran for 21.9 seconds. Shortman ran for 40.7 seconds to the other end of the field. (Both of them can do a six minute mile!) I walked out to where Dodger was and looked at his location. After hiding a micro with a hint in it for the final, I had Dodger run to where Shortman was waiting which he did in 22.3 seconds. There we found a good hiding spot for the final.



Good luck and good caching,

Loch Cache, Shortman and Dodger




Congrats to g-o-cashers on the FTF
