Geocache Description:

Many times over the last couple of years I’ve thought of calling a cache at the Taree Cattle Saleyards “Not on a Monday”, as there is ALWAYS a LOT of muggles for the cattle auctions on a Monday. But, they also hold some on Fridays as well.

Using the logical steps of long division arithmetic, find the number that each letter represents in the following puzzle.



0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Waypoint 1 is at S31º 56.KPE' E152º 27.HPY'. * Bring the word division code key with you to decode for the cache position. *

When you are looking for the first waypoint, think like you’re listening to an Asian impersonator of Billy Joel singing, “You may be …, I may be cwazy, but it just may be a loonatic yu’r look’n for.”

You’re welcome to take a toy animal to pop into your cache bag and pass onto caches elsewhere, or give to the grandkids.

* 3 star rating for cache, due to puzzle! * Let me know if you think it needs adjusting.

My thanks to Ellis and Butler for approving this cache (and, yes, the new owners have given permission as well).
