Geocache Description:

This is the first of several caches reflecting the fundamentals in every life. Education, be it through studies or life lessons is a basic need for all creatures and an important element of living.

"Instruction ends in the school-room, but education ends only with life." ~ Frederick W. Robertson

You are looking for a small, blue, water tight box. Plenty of room for travelers and small swag.

The Phoenix or Firebird is a mythical creature that has endured through vastly different cultures including the Persians, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Chinese, and Phoenicians. It has a 500 to 1000
year life cycle at the end of which it creates a nest of sweet smelling twigs and dies in a fire of its own making. Both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes only to rise again as a chick destined to live for another 500+ years. The Phoenix is known as a symbol of rebirth, immortality, and renewal.

Stedfast she gazed upon his fire, Still her destroyer and her sire! As if to his her soul of flame Had flown already whence it came. ~ George Darley
