The "J" Challenge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

retiredprof: In light of geocaching's recent changes to the publishing rules, I am archiving all 150 of my challenge caches. I am a retired psychology professor, not a computer programmer. I am simply unable to comply with the new geochecker rules. I am sad that I have to do this. For those who have already begun any of my challenge caches, please note that you can still log archived caches. If you have any problems with this decision, please contact the geocaching authorities so that your suggestions may be considered.

Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden about six miles SW of Yuba City at the above-listed coordinates. You can drive right to it. In order to log this cache, you must first find 25 "J" caches, as explained below.

Everyone in my family has a name that starts with "J"...except for me...so it is only fit that I enjoy finding "J" caches. Your job is to find 25 caches, each containing a different name that begins with the letter "J." They must be common first names, such as Jack, Jim, and Joe. Do not use a last-name, and avoid names that sound like last-names, such as Jonesy, Jackson, or Jefferson. And be sure to include caches from five different categories (icons) when posting your finds. There is no time limit, you may already have found them. When logging this cache, list your requisite caches as shown below.
