Geocache Description:


About 15 years ago, while archery hunting in the area with my Father and Brother, we happened upon a strange group of people in the woods. We were all in our camo and had just finished sneaking around the forest trying to get close to some deer. There were about 133 of these people strewn throughout about 2-3 acres of the forest. They were all pretty much hippies in my eyes. Most of them were dressed in colorful, flowing outfits and some wore very little clothing at all. We could hear singing and guitar music playing and the smell of some illegal smoke filled entered our vehicle through rolled down windows as we passed a few groups using pipes. My Father had heard that there was a group meeting out here. He thought they were called "The Rainbow Family" but we never really found out for sure. We got some pretty strange looks from from most of them and I heard one even say a curse word before yelling, "Hunters!!" We did not mean to interfere with their gathering and just continued down the road.

A few weeks ago, I was caching in the same area with my boy. Along our hike to one cache we found what I think might have been their camp. There were a few things left behind but one food can in particular caught my attention. It was a blank tin can with just the words KINKY SEEDS on it. It had an open tin lid still hanging on by a small piece of uncut metal. My boy picked it up because he thought he saw something in it. He opened the can and found a colorful piece of paper which convinced me that we had indeed found their campsite again.

I showed the Paper to my Father but he could not understand it. He did say that the main thing he remembered from 15 years ago was that these people were singing songs as other played guitars and tambourines. He assumes this is some sort of song. I tried and tried to figure out what it says but finally decided that geocachers would probably be better at breaking this secret hippy code than I would be. So please, help me solve this mystery! See the image below of the paper my son found inside of the SEEDS can.
