Geocache Description:


This is 1 of 42 puzzle caches in a series that were created to commemorate GeoWoodstock VIII. There is a Final of this Series that you can find, if you feel inclined to do so. The Waypoint for the Series Final is GC24NBA.


You will need to find the 21 numbers attached to 21 of the 42 puzzles used to create this series. These numbers will be placed on the logbook of the puzzle caches, so WATCH FOR THEM! This cache may, or may not have one of those numbers in it. You will need to have signed the logbook of all 21 of the correct caches to be able to legally claim a find on the Series Final. Good Luck!

Since this puzzle series is about peace, I thought I would write one puzzle of someone who can help you feel at peace, that would be Eithne Ni Bhraonain, or Enya.

Briefly, she started her career with her family band, Clannad but left after only a few years to pursue a solo career. She was involved in making couple of soundtrack type albums, The Celts and The Frog Prince before starting her career which most people know her from.

She has won 4 grammys for her albums and works on various soundtracks. She has performed music in at least 10 different languages. Her main solo albums are Watermark, Shepherd Moons, The Memory of Trees, A Day Without Rain and finally Amarantine. Her Christmas album, And Winter Came, is mainly comprised of original songs, not a simple regurgitation of songs already sung 1000 times over.
