Geocache Description:

Another Orin Stonebreaker Cache on a very good seasonal road easily navigated by 2wd vehicles.

I was sitting in the Black Griffon savoring an end of the day porter,watching Frodo Baggins hustle Snake Pliskin at darts when Orin hopped up on the stool next to mine.

"Afternoon Laddiebuck, I was hoping you could do me a favor."

"Orin, it's been a long day I just want to drink my beer and go home and watch the game."

"This won't take a second all I need you to do is pick up a small treasure pouch I stashed."

"Where is it?"

"In the mouth of a Tree-ent"

I blew beer all over the bar messing up Pliskin's aim. Ignoring his scowl I turned back to my uncle.

"An Ent! The giant trees that run around the woods mashing people flat,those Ents"

"Oh, quit your whining there mostly peaceful,and this one's a friend of mine....sort of."

"It's not a friend of mine.it wont know me. If I stick my arm in it's mouth it will eat me! My wife won't like that!"

"Boy, first Ents don't eat people.....they sort of grind 'em up into fertilizer and second there is a password so it will know you. It will be easy."

I could feel a headache starting as I asked, "what's the password?"

"Miracle-Gro"

So that's your Quest gear up, find the Ent, retrieve a piece of treasure from its maw and make it home without becoming fertilizer... Good Luck
