Geocache Description:

This cache is named after one of Stompin' Tom's Albums, but it also applies to me, fly away bird. 

The cache is not at these coordinates. However this location is a special place for Canadian music fans of the iconic singer, Stompin' Tom Connors. You will need to visit here to find one of the six clues to the final cache.  The final cache is in a small container, located just off a country road that runs perpendicular to the Stompin' Tom Road. 


Now that you are at the start of the puzzle cache you will need to read the monument to find your first clue. 

N 46 55.ABC W 064 08.DEF

F = the second digit in the year noted on the monument.

E = the number of towns in New Brunswick mentioned in the song "I've Been Everywhere", divided by 2.

D = the goals scored in the song, "the Good Old Hockey Game", plus 2.

C = Don Messer's age when he played the fiddle at the barn dance on the Old York County Line.  Refer to Tom's song, "Don Messer Story" 

B = in the song, "Bud the Spud", what time Did Bud The Spud roll into Toronto, minus 6. 

A = the number of guys Tom was drinking with in the song, "Sudbury Saturday Night", minus 2. 

 

You may want to refer to online lyric sites for some help unless you are a true fan of Stompin' Tom.  To check your answers, A+B+C=11 and D+E+ F=18
