This cache has been archived.

Mrs.Hoagie: This cache has run its course. Our convertible is gone, no more driving the byways of Uwchlan Township with the top down. I'll have another puzzle nearby soon...

Geocache Description:

It's spring, and my thoughts turn to long drives along the back roads of Chester County in my red convertible, top down, the wind in my hair, radio playing Jimmy Buffet songs... The sounds of spring and summer!  On that note, I've created a little puzzle to challenge your mind as it thaws out from our long winter. Be sure to read carefully;  things may not be as they appear. 


And here's a little music to accompany your solving... Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes

Note: the cache difficulty is a combination of the puzzle and hide. Placed with permission of Uwchlan Township.

Trouble in 2016! Most geocachers get to this cache in two steps. First, they solve the Soduko puzzle and get to the wrong location. There they found a container with note that says "What was the name of this cache?" But Uwchlan Township is building a Memorial Wall and they removed the fence along the road behind the wall, and the cache container with the hint along with it. Oops! Future solvers may need to know that when you're standing behind the memorial wall scratching your head, you should consider the cache name and rethink your solution. I'm certain that will Change Your Attitude for the final.

Also note that while it's creeping ever closer, there is currently no PI at the final location. I suspect this may change by the end of the summer, but I'll keep pushing it back.

FTF receives a Hoagies personal item, and a very small cache container complete with Rite in the Rain log.

Congrats to turkey819 and igfrey for being First To Find!

Congrats to scMike43 and softbyte, for being STF, and the first to find without any hints. Aren't you glad I didn't answer the phone?
