Geocache Description:

THIS CACHE IS AVAILABLE DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS ONLY!!!

DO NOT USE THE FIRST DRIVEWAY FROM CORNER. The magic # is 2249.


This cache will be extremely easy to locate and is a birdhouse style of cache.  For that matter, if you cannot see it from when you get to the GZ, you may need new eyeglasses.  The difficulty is the challenge to open the cache and sign the log.  You will NOT need to bring any personal tools, pencils, pens, magnets, screwdrivers, or anything else.  The only thing, which may be helpful, will be your BRAIN (never leave home without it). 

TO GET CREDIT FOR THIS CACHE, YOU MUST SIGN THE CACHE LOG.

Currently, until repairs can be made a NUT (which acts as the KEY) attached to a tether is below the birdhouse cache.  The word NUT is to replace the word KEY at all points in the description.  Due to partial repairs made but not compete, and this is a biggy hint.  The first letter comes from the top, is a "B", now figure out the rest.

The supplied KEY is the means to the end.  The KEY is very important.  The KEY must be used, to figure out proper combination of steps required to open the cache.  The key is attached to a retractable key holder.  Pull down, what you need (approximately 1 1/2 to 2 feet).  Please be gentle in pulling it out and allowing it to retract.

Upon viewing the cache, you will see a padlock and will notice it uses letters (not numbers). You will also see letters on 4 surfaces of the cache. All you have to do is to get 4 letters to work the lock.

Hint: Try to figure out what is special about this key.

What type of KEY is it?

What might the color indicate?

What is it made of? What might this indicate?

What are the properties of the key? What might this indicate?

What is special about this KEY?

What can you do with this KEY, that you can't do with you house or car key?

How to use it?

Keep asking yourself questions.

Etc., etc., etc.

REMEMBER!!! You must use the KEY to solve for the answer.

THIS CACHE IS AVAILABLE DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS ONLY!!!

This cache is located on my property and I give permission for GEOCACHERS to access and park in my driveway. Your vehicle can be used to block most unwanted viewing from the street.

Inspiration for this cache, was obtained from the gadget caches designed by WVTim.

FTF will get one of my pathtags.

CONGRATS TO SpikeCurtis and gvmhlal for co-FTF.
