Geocache Description:

Awl cashers will make short work of this won along this long windy rode.  Is the road curved, crooked or does it just blow?

We all learned in school the meanings of 'antonym, synonym, and homonym'. Antonyms are words with opposite meanings, like 'lost' and 'found'. Synonyms are words with similar meanings, like 'tall' and 'Graniteman84' or 'short' and 'Alirose'. Homonyms are words that sound the same but have different meanings, like 'tire', which could refer to a car part or the state of fatigue. But, do you know what a homophone is? Homophones are two words that sound the same, have different meanings and may or may not be spelled differently. So a homonym is a type of homophone. A heterograph is also a type of homophone; in this case though, the words are spelled differently, like 'cash' and 'cache'.  
For this cache you will need to post your find on geocaching.com.
