The Gingerbread Boy Traditional Cache

deacon4: Sorry I had to see this one go but with new regulations on state parks it's impossible to keep this one here. It's a shame all this had to happen. Good luck to everybody and happy caching in other parks.

Geocache Description:


Once upon a time, there were a little old woman and a little old man who lived in a little cottage near the river. The little old woman and the little old man were hungry, so the little old woman decided to bake a gingerbread boy.

She made a big batch of gingerbread dough, then rolled it flat and cut it in the shape of a gingerbread boy. She gave him raisins for eyes, a cinnamon drop for a mouth, and chocolate chips for buttons. Then she put the gingerbread boy in the oven to bake. When the gingerbread boy was done, the little old woman opened the oven door, but before she could take him out, the gingerbread boy jumped up and ran through the kitchen and out of the cottage shouting, "Don't eat me!"

The little old woman ran after the gingerbread boy. "Stop," she yelled. But the gingerbread boy ran even faster, chanting, "Run, run as fast as you can. You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread boy."
The gingerbread boy ran into the garden and passed the little old man. "Stop," the little old man called out, "I want to eat you." But the gingerbread boy ran even faster, chanting, "I've run away from a little old woman, and I can run away from you, I can. Run, run as fast as you can. You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread boy."

The little old man chased the gingerbread boy, followed by the little old woman. But the gingerbread boy ran too fast for them.

The gingerbread boy is hiding in Cheesequake Park. Your job is to find him.

Be careful with muggles and make sure you hide him well, he’s very scared of the little old man and little old woman but most of all have fun!!
