Geocache Description:

"Courage isn't just a matter of not being afraid. It's being afraid and doing what you have to do anyway."
Jon Pertwee- Third Doctor

Doctor Who is a British scifi tv show produced by the BBC. The program depicts the adventures of a mysterious and eccentric humanoid alien known as the Doctor who travels through time and space in his spacecraft, the TARDIS (an acronym for Time And Relative Dimension In Space), which appears from the exterior to be a blue 1950s British police phone box. With his companions, the Doctor explores time and space, faces a variety of foes, and rights wrongs. Doctor Who is the longest-running, most successful science fiction television show in the world and has been on air since the early 1960's.

The Doctor has been played by eleven actors thus far. The transition from one actor to another is written into the show's plot as regeneration, whereby the Doctor takes on a new body when faced with near death. Your quest, if you choose to accept it, is to find all eleven Doctors, each represented with their own cache. They are all located in or near the city of Oshkosh. Within each Doctor's cache is a clue (pieces of coordinates) on where to find the final cache in the series, the TARDIS cache! The clues are written on a business card with a quote from each doctor. PLEASE LEAVE THESE CARDS IN THE CACHES. Each cache in this series of 12 is a pill bottle (various sizes) painted blue like the TARDIS, so some are hidden pretty well. PLEASE please please replace any cover material carefully! Please remember to BRING YOUR OWN PEN!

The third cache will lead you to Jon Pertwee who played the Doctor from 1970-1974. In this cache you will find the "D" coordinate for the TARDIS cache. Write this number down and keep it handy!

We are a family of Doctor Who fans and we hope you enjoy hunting this series of caches as much as we enjoyed making them!

Congrats to BakRdz on another FTF, and thanks for the help with adjusting the coordinates!
