Bishop Arts District Mystery Cache
ChinaTrekker: Well, it has been 2 weeks and I have not heard back from the shop owner, so I am going to take that as not having permission to have the cache hidden here anymore. So I'm going to archive it. It's had a good life, and I hope the murals have brought you enjoyment. Thank for all the nice comments.

A small round Tupperware. Back when I conceived this idea, I was living in Alabama. Asked Hottbloon if she would take over ownership, and she agreed. Now she has gone off on an RV adventure and I'm back in Dallas. We had a blast creating this. Hope you enjoy it too. Placed with permission of shop owner.
Your task is to fill in the coordinates
32 44.ABC
096 49.DEF
In the process of finding the coordinates, we hope you enjoy the easy walking tour of the Bishop Arts District murals, all within a 500' radius.
Whether you want to dine in a unique restaurant, browse through art/antique stores, hope to taste a nostalgic soda-pop or ice cream, or just enjoy people-watching, you are sure to have a memorable visit here. As we took a lunch break while mapping out this cache, a large film crew was photographing the Dallas 2008 "Model of the Year" finals.
This area was originally developed as warehouses and shops in the 1920s. In the 1930s, a trolley stop along Davis became Dallas' busiest trolley stop. Starting in the 1980s and continuing through the 1990s and 2000s, renovations have taken place to transform the area into a walkable, urban environment. Murals, brick pavers, and other street elements have polished the rough look of the warehouses and have made the area a popular leisure and dining destination. Today, I consider this area "a little piece of Austin." Got that flavor!
The above coords will take you to parking and your first mural painted on a building. First orient yourself to north, south, east and west.
Answer F - Look to north. How many flowers on the blue dress of a lady who is cooking? (not including her sleeve)
Go west on 7th Street 317 feet.
Answer E - Add the first and last numbers of the Oak Cliff trolly.
Go west on 7th cross Bishop Street . Continue west until you see the mural with the travel route 80 in the upper left corner.
Answer C = How many cactus plants are there. Look closely so you don't miss a small one ( Don't count the green boulder )
Turn around and go back to Bishop street. Look to the south.
Answer B - What is the last number in the date over the arch? What are the names of the men in the portraits?
Go south to the alley. Cross Bishop street to the east. On the mural to the south
Answer D = how many people are in the upper windows?
On the north mural
Answer A- How many holes in the film reel? (not the film)
Enjoy the area while you are there. A true treasure. No reason for the names of the men. Just wanted to. :)
