Geocache Description:

A man walks down the street
He says why am I short of attention
Got a short little span of attention . . . .
You Can Call Me Al --  Paul Simon

This puzzle is not for those with a short little attention span! Its for those with a large appetite for puzzle solving. Enjoy!


The posted coordinates are for the Schlow Centre Region Library. The cache is not hidden in or near the library but you will need to go there to complete the Keystone Layer of this multi-layered mystery. But first you must complete the two previous layers of the mystery or you won't know what to do when you get there. For the library's hours, check it's website.
