That's what she said! Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

gastropodgirl: Well, I haven't been able to make it back to Monterey yet, and probably won't for a little while. So I think it's time to put this one to bed (that's what she said?). Thanks everyone!

Geocache Description:

The coordinates listed are not correct. You must solve the puzzle!

Here's a puzzle cache in honor of Evil Sea Monkey's (aka old man Seahoob) recent 40th birthday. The puzzle celebrates one of our favorite catchphrases, spoken frequently by Michael Scott of "The Office".



To get the coordinates, you must match up the famous female with her quote.

A) Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.
B) I am not afraid…I was born to do this.
C) If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain.
D) No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
E) Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.
F) Though I am grateful for the blessings of wealth, it hasn't changed who I am. My feet are still on the ground. I'm just wearing better shoes.

Oprah Winfrey = 0
Eleanor Roosevelt = 1
Mother Theresa = 3
Miss Piggy = 4
Dolly Parton = 7
Joan of Arc = 9

The coordinates can be found at:
N 36 AB.BCD (checksum = 38)
W 121 EC.FBA (checksum = 27)

Cache is a camo'ed nut tube, located just off the sidewalk. Original contents include: junior fishing license, flower paper clip, buddha pencil topper, Christmas tree figurine, seahorse and fish magnets, monkey eraser, stickers, log, pen, and a mini tin just for Evil Sea Monkey. Check for muggles driving around the corner, and happy caching!

Note: 9/5/11 - replaced with small camo'ed plastic container.

*** Congrats to da_ewoks for another FTF! ***

Note: To those unsure of how to go thru the 'maze', the most direct route is the street that starts with a 'B'.
