Geocache Description:

Camouflaged medium pill bottle.

Many of you might know Minipyre. He's kind of awesome.

He's also a pretty avid geocacher, for being one and a half. He loves the outdoors, hiking, and the thrill of the find. He's constantly insisting that any odd thing he finds hidden or even out of place is a "cache" and insists on someone trying to open it to see if there's a logbook inside. So very many of you knew that this day would come. Mini has hidden his first cache, and included one of his own matchbox cars as an FTF prize. (they're a pretty big deal to him, and his FAVORITE type of swag, narrowly beating plastic dinosaurs or dragons) Now naturally, as toddlers tend to, he mimics everything we do in his own way. When he first started learning to count, the only numbers he could remember without help were eight and two. So he would count anything and everything with just eights and twos.  He would count every step down a flight of stairs, "8, 2, 8, 2, 8 ...." He's got a few more numbers at his disposal now, but this puzzle was born of that first counting he loved to do so much. He really did hide this cache himself, near a spot he likes to hang out. He just sort of tossed it in the trees and proclaimed proudly "hide cache!", so Mompyre helped him find a more covered location. He approved. I guess old habits die hard, because when I asked him to read off the coords to me, this is all I got:
