Geocache Description:


This cache was placed in honor of Presidents Day. The above coordinates are NOT CORRECT. The actual coordinates are:

?? ??.?0? 0?? 00.?0?

Don't let your brain work too hard to figure this one out. While you work on the puzzle, relax your mind with a few fun facts about some of our past leaders:

Harry S Truman got up at 5am daily to practice the piano for 2 hours. The "S" is not an abbreviation for his middle name and has no significance.

Jimmy Carter was the first president born in a hospital, and was a speed reader, having been recorded reading up to 2,000 words per minute.

John Quincy Adams regularly swam nude in the Potomac River. After being refused interviews with Adams many times, a female journalist went to the river, gathered his clothes and sat on them until she had her interview. Before this, no female had interviewed a president. He also named one of his sons George Washington.

James Monroe was the first president to ride on a steamboat. After his death, daughter Eliza moved to a convent in Paris, never to be heard from again.

Martin Van Buren was the first U.S. president born in the United States. The presidents preceding Van Buren were born in colonies that later became states. He and his wife spoke Dutch at home.

James Madison was the shortest and lightest president at 5 feet, 4 inches and about 100 pounds. He was also the first president to wear trousers instead of knee breeches.

Most of John Adams teeth had fallen out, but he refused to wear dentures and therefore talked with a lisp. He was also our longest living president dying at age 90.

George Washington was the only American president to be unanimously elected, and the only president who did not live in the White House. He only had one tooth at his inauguration.

The cache is a camo'd larger pill bottle with a small FTF prize. BYOP. Muggles can be high during certain times. Good Luck!!
