GC4R55B Unusual Plurals ... Challenge (Unknown Cache) in California, United States created by Abbie and the prof

This cache has been archived.

retiredprof: In light of geocaching's recent changes to the publishing rules, I am archiving all 150 of my challenge caches. I am a retired psychology professor, not a computer programmer. I am simply unable to comply with the new geochecker rules. I am sad that I have to do this. For those who have already begun any of my challenge caches, please note that you can still log archived caches. If you have any problems with this decision, please contact the geocaching authorities so that your suggestions may be considered.

Geocache Description:

The cache is located in southeastern Yuba City, you can drive right to it. Be sure to read the logging requirements below.

Recently I happened to notice my daughter, Abbie, doing her spelling homework. She had to learn 17 words which have unusual plurals. I realized that we have seen some of them in cache titles. So, your task is to find a dozen caches with plurals from the list presented below (no duplicate words). No locationless or event caches are allowed, and only one cache from a series. You may use only one compound word...such as database or menfolk...and be sure to include at least one non-traditional cache. I hope you enjoy this spelling assignment...
