Ampersand 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This cache has been archived.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 near Hwy 99 about nine miles south of Yuba City, you can drive within fifty feet of it. Do not park on the Hwy, but circle around and approach the cache from the west. And be sure to note the important logging requirements below.

NOTE: Due to Hwy construction, cache moved .4 miles W [to N 39 00.193 W 121 38.449] and new hint posted (5-4-13)

I have noticed that some of the caches I find have an ampersand in the title. Now it's your turn to find some. Your task is to find 26 caches, each with an ampersand in the title...and each starting with a different letter of the alphabet. No locationless caches, and only one cache from a series.

There are no time limits, you may already have found the required caches. When logging this cache, list your requisite cache-finds as shown below...and be sure to include six cache types (icons) in your list. Good luck, & I hope you enjoy this challenge & all goes well for you...
