brrrr...
The wind is howling, temperatures have plummeted, there is snow in the air and on the ground. It's time to curl up next to the fire with a good book and stay warm, or is it? Here is our Christmas gift to you, a variety of caches to get you out into the cold, if only for a few minutes at a time. Some of these have a code in them that you will need for a bonus cache. Make sure you collect that information.
Like the brrr, these caches will not last. When spring arrives these will depart.
The Christmas story tells of three Wisemen from the east bringing gifts. In Matthew 2:11 the Bible says "On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh." We know what gold is, we can infer from its name that frankincense is an incense, but what is myrrh?
To locate this cache you must do just a bit of research and determine which of these statements is true, or you can just go check all four locations eventually you will be able to locate the cache.
A) Myrrh is the aromatic resin from a small, thorny tree.
