Geocache Description:

This cache was placed to celebrate my 2000th find. The cache is not at the listed coordinates.  You will need to solve the puzzle to find the actual coordinates of the cache.

Thanks to Muttlee333 for the inspiration for this cache.

Most geocachers have at some point searched and failed to find a geocache. Then having searched for it again and quickly spotted it they may have thought they should have gone to Vision Savers as they should have spotted it the first time they searched. Kee decided this applied to her so went there and got a pair of glasses.

Katie got her glasses to help her do her job as she is long sighted and is struggling to see things close to her. She got them from a local opticians. She had the choice of two, Wellys The Opticians or Looking Good.

The travel rep wanted glasses to help her work in the Florida Keys sunshine.

The drugs tester went to Wellys for glasses.

Robert went to 20/20 Vision after dropping his old glasses in cement at work. He wants to avoid this problem in future by buying contact lenses.

The computer programmer got his eye wear from Looking Good.

Eye Empress sold either bifocals or the prescription sunglasses. Keith got bifocal glasses.

Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
