Geocache Description:


The Postman Always Rings Twice is a 1934 crime novel by James M. Cain. The novel was quite successful and notorious upon publication, and is regarded as one of the more important crime novels of the 20th century. Fast-moving and brief (only about 100 pages long, depending on the edition), the novel's mix of sexuality and violence was startling in its time, and saw the book banned in Boston. It is also included in the Modern Library 100 Best Novels list. It has been adapted as a motion picture five times. The 1946 version is probably the best known, and is regarded as an important film noir. The title is something of a non sequitur in that nowhere in the novel does a postman appear, nor is one even alluded to.

The cache is also something of a non sequitur, as The Postman Always Rings Twice has nothing to do with the cache. However, if you can't find it, a Geocacher should always check twice before posting a DNF. There is easy parking on the street right by GZ.

The cache is hidden in plain sight, but is indeed hidden. Please take the time to rehide as you found to preserve the difficulty rating and ensure the next cacher also has fun.

In the years since the cache was first hidden, Stonehaven Park has been built near the GZ. You can enjoy the amenities there once you are finished with the hunt.

Good Luck.
