Geocache Description:

This is CrazyCatLady's first cache. It is a relatively simple multi-cache. The posted coordinates will take you to a cemetary. Once the simple puzzle is solved you will be taken to a quick grab a few miles away.

This cache is placed in honor of my grandfather, Wilson (Red) and my grandmother Madelyn.
Should be an easy multi-cache find. Please replace the final stage the same way that you find it.

The first stage of this cache is located in a cemetary. Please be respectful of the area and observe their rules and posted hours. Michigan law states that you are only permitted to visit cemetaries dawn to dusk throughout the state unless other hours are posted. Please also be respectful of others in the park that may be paying their respects or mourning their loved ones.

At the first stage posted coordinates you will be looking at a large headstone that will have 4 names on it. 2 of the names will be for Red and Madelyn. The other 2 names are for Madelyn's brother and his wife. Please pay close attention to Red's birth year and the year that he went to be with the angels. These numbers will be very helpful to you for finding the second stage of this cache.

Use the following to decipher where the second stage of the cache is located:

(E+2)(H-5) (F+G)(D-2).(B-5)(H+A)((2*E)+1) N
(H+G)(A+C) (E+C+A)(B-C).(F+G)(H/E)((4*A)+3) W

When looking for the second stage of this cache please be aware that this property belongs to my father. Geocachers have exclusive permission to be on the property to hunt for this stage. If the property owner should be working in this area please do not block the small drive. The cache is a short distance off the road and should not take a long time to locate. Please also be aware that there is a barb wire fence to the south of the cache. Use caution.

Congrats and many thanks to Tom_Kat for FTF!
