Geocache Description:

This cache is second in a birthday series in honor of my daughter, who turned 10 in August 2010. We placed 10 caches in 2010, and will add one more each year in August. Of course her name isn't actually Leroy, but comes from a nickname we gave her when she was younger. She pronounced it "Ree-Roy" and it was so cute that we used to tease her and tell her we were changing her name to Leroy. She'd put her hands on her hips and demand "Don't call me Ree-Roy!"


This cache is placed with owner's permission. Please don't block the drive when parking. The cache is hidden somewhere between the road and the line of shrubs. There is no need to go beyond the shrubbery onto the business side, unless you'd like to drop in, say "hi" and look around. They have some wonderful greenhouses around back if you have the time to browse around! BYOP

This cache was placed with inspiration and permission of Zen Bassmaster's archived cache GC11Z0Z

Pay special attention to the logging "Suggestions" on this cache. To keep within the guidelines, we can't REQUIRE you to follow the theme of this cache, but participation is strongly encouraged! Please note: You do still have to find and sign the real cache log to log a find on this cache. We're liars, not cheats.

Listen up, maggots! Welcome to Logging Improvement Boot Camp! I am Gunnery Sgt. Garmin and you have been sent here for the offense of bad cache logging. Private Joker over here copied and pasted the same log into 27 caches in a row! And listen to this log from Private Pyle. "TN/LN SL TFTC." I can't tell if that's supposed to be a log, or the secret recipe for Alpha Bits!

But there is good news, ladies! You can learn to improve your cache logging! I will teach you! By the time you finish this course, your days of three word cache logs are OVER!

Your first obstacle is called a Liar's Cache. It's a simple 1/1 micro and even Pyle should be able to get to it easily. So why the 5 difficulty rating? That's where the lie comes in! Your mission is to seek out and find this simple 1/1, but to log it as if it were a 5/5. And I expect detail! I want to hear about broken limbs, four mile hikes uphill both ways, days of searching. I expect creativity! I expect ingenuity! And most of all, I expect substance! Hop to it, ladies!
