Happy New Year ... Challenge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.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 hidden in northern Yuba City. You can drive right to it...after you fulfill the requirements below.

With the new year soon upon us, I look forward to the months ahead...and find myself looking back over the past 12 months. Your task is to find 12 caches, each with a different month in the title. No locationless or lab caches are allowed, and only two caches from a series, and not more than three caches of any one type. No plurals or possessives, and each word must stand alone. May, for example, can't be part of "maybe" or "mayor" or "mayhem." See my examples below...and Happy New Year!
