Geocache Description:

Another cache in beautiful Fairplains Cemetery.  The entrance is at the intersection of Graceland St. NE and Diamond Ave. NE.  Please, do not attempt this cache at night or when there is any sort of ceremony happening.

I’ve placed a few caches out there.  Quite a few of them are in this cemetery.  So, when I thought of a place to put my first multi, this spot was the first to come to mind.  The coordinates will take you to a tomb with inscriptions dedicated to each of the four seasons.
 
The cache is located at N 42 59.ABC, W 085 38.DEF.  Here’s what you need to complete the coordinates:
 
A:  The number of letters in the name of the WINTER author

B:  6th word below AUTUMN – 5th word below AUTUMN - 1

C:  Look at James Russell Lowell’s passage.  Ignore his name and SUMMER.  Answer the following problem:  Number of F’s  x  Number of M’s  x  Number of B’s

D:  The number of letters in the first name of the AUTUMN author times the number of letters in the last name of the WINTER author divided by the number of seasons represented on the tomb.

E:  The number of words in the SPRING Bible verses divided by the number of words in the last line of the verses.

F:  The number of words in the last line of the SUMMER passage.
