Geocache Description:

VikingChick92, our sly and crafty little caching buddy, has a variety of geotools she likes to employ while out in the field. This little tribute cache may force her to reach deep into her bag of tricks, possibly even requiring a metal hanger and going all kinds of medieval on it. Leave the hook, though. It'll come in handy. Actually, a stiff tape measure might work, too. (BRING A TOOL)


9/11/13 * * OUR TOOL KEEPS DISAPPEARING, SO NOW YOU HAVE TO COME PREPARED. IF YOU READ THE DESCRIPTION, THE SORT OF TOOL NEEDED SHOULD BE OBVIOUS * * *

** OPENING THE LID CAN BE A LITTLE TRICKY, SO PLEASE TAKE CARE WHEN GOING FOR THE PAPER.

(Okay, sure, the description is wordy and obtuse, but the clues should still be plain enough to fish out -- PLEASE NO SPOILERS IN YOUR LOGS.)

Being guys, rygemini and youdad had the best of intentions. They always do. And they certainly thought about putting out a celebratory cache in honor of VikingChick92's 1000th career cache find. But you know how it is. One thing leads to another and, well, I mentioned that we're guys, right? We mean well. We really really mean well. And to the geocaching pal who's always there to find the cache whenever we can't (something about "a woman's touch"), we salute you!

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE SPEEDY FTF TO REVBUGGY.
Sitting up in a fellow teachers room, Rygemini and I had a great time watching you go through the process. Great form finding and using the geotool and thanks for putting it back so nicely. Kudos.
