Geocache Description:

** Cache is at the posted coordinates **


You will need to complete a challenge in order to qualify to log a find on this cache. It is a really easy challenge. To qualify you will need to spell a word with the first letter of caches that you have found. Since 'a' and 'I' are words, all you have to do to qualify is to find a cache that starts with either an A or an I. But where is the fun in that?

If you are going for a longer word, and I hope you do, here are some rules that you will need to adhere to.

- The caches you use can be either found in one day or on consecutive days.
- If you do the consecutive days type you can find more than one cache a day, but can only count one per day for this challenge.
- previous finds count.
- All cache types count.
- You can use a word that someone else used

Here are some ideas for words:
The longest published word is 1,909 letters long. It starts with Methionylglutaminylargin, but is too long to list.
The longest word in a major dictionary is 45 letters long: Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.
How long can you make your word?

Here are two examples from my finds:

One day: on 2/21/14 I found the following caches that spell Cathedral:
Columbia Heights Ballparks: Huset: Softball (GCZT89)
Advent: Week 1 - Hope (GC5K484)
The KB Circle (GCZRWE)
Hickory House (GC57P9E)
Eeyore (GC3TDRC)
Drunk On You (GC3T9)
Redder70 Finds 4,000 (GC5B95Z)
Alone With You (GC3T5BD)
Lizzielu's Treasurebox (GC1YP1Z)

Consecutive: In December, 2012 I found the following caches that spell Flags:
FTF Hounds MN Style - KredEP (GC1DRHE) 12/2/12
Louisiana Blues (GC3W3X4) 12/3/12
A Table for 3 (GC41H44) 12/4/12
Guarding the Guardhouse (GC3WD69) 12/5/12
Shadow Falls (GC3YWEM) 12/6/12

Please post your qualifying caches, make a bookmark list or show that you qualify in some other way.

I will post the leaders on the Leaderboard periodically.
