Geocache Description:

Cache not at posted coordinates. Solve the puzzle below to find the cache coordinates.

Opening Day always inspires optimism. Starting with a clean slate, the world is full of possibilities. Anything can happen. Anybody can win it all. Anyone can solve this puzzle!

Here's my fantasy team for this year:

  • CINTURÓN
  • LAWNS
  • COLINA
  • MARRÓN, D
  • MEADOW
  • JOVEN, D
  • PANADERO
  • SOCAIRE
  • BOUQUETS
  • PRAYERBEADS
  • MAYORDOMO
  • GRIS
  • PENIQUES
  • TEJEDOR
  • MUSGO

Special Notes about the 2014 Puzzle Challenge: To be considered for Fastest Solver points, you must verify your solution with certitude. All "point" scoring is arbitrary, subject to change, at the discretion of the cache owner, and probably completely meaningless (unless you just want to be announced sooner at the celebration party, and even that might not happen in the right order). The real challenge is just to see whether you can solve all of these caches by the end of the year. To maintain fairness, hints should not be offered by the cache owner or other solvers until the fifteenth of the month.

Special Notes about this month's cache: Posted coordinates are where I parked when I hid the cache. Hopefully this spot will work (third attempt to hide this cache, danged PMO puzzles!).
