This will be my final cache, # 17 of of a series of caches,

"A Cache A Day While On Vaca - "NO" Vacancy In The Park?

GeoSplunk discovered this abandoned area in the park. Wonder why this area isn't being utilitized for recreational purposes. It is an ideal spot!

I have noticed one thing in my rounds of placing of the caches and finding a couple in the past two weeks is that there are alot of abandoned parks in this area that could be utilitized as ball fields, picnicing & swimming. It could also possiby create some revenue! Which could only help our local municipalities that are already hurting by this economy.

The state is claiming poverty but if they looked at the resources that we currently have then perhaps things could/would turn around.

I am also aware that there are costs involved when fixing, renovating and even maintaining these areas but it was just merely a thought.

The above coordinates will bring you close to the final cache but you will need to solve a puzzle to get true coordinates to the actual cache.

If you go to the gallery, you will find the puzzle you need to solve.

(* You may print this puzzle by right clicking onto the puzzle and choosing, "print picture". )

To solve this puzzle, you must search for the words that are listed on the right hand side.

Circle each letter in the word.

When you have found all of the words there will be letters that have not been circled.

Take those letters one at a time, in order, from top to bottom and they will form the written out numbers you will need to use. Example: SIX=6

N 42 06.XXX
W 072 41.XXX

Good Luck & Hope you like this final cache of my vacation series. It has been both fun and exhausting!! I will be out searching for caches for a while now! Hope to see you soon!!

Noted Park Fee (Memorial Day - Labor Day) - Depending on where you enter the park.
