Geocache Description:

 

        Maybe it comes in a moment of melancholy.  Or a time of crisis in self or family.  In some it is a sudden bout of panic, a crushing anxiety.  Others may collaspe into a deep depression that they can't climb out of.  There is no escaping the reality that it is there to deal with however you choose.  It comes for all.


     The Alphanumeric challenge is undone.  The closest number six is 1400 miles away.  The gaunlet tossed tears at the soul for it's completion and the choice for a solution may involve shady manipulations of the rules (also known as cheating).  

  The cache is not at the posted coordinates.  

     There you will find the statue in the picture.  You need to find the plaque on the side telling the story of the sculptor and his struggles completing this imposing piece from a single large granite boulder left during one of the alleged to have happened ice ages.  

     We will use the last paragraph of the story to solve a little puzzle.  Count the letters in each word and assign in order the letters A, B, C, D ect. 

Cache will be found at:

I was asked by a nice cacher to add the line: “the CACHE IS in the cemetery or NOT in the cemetery please” Also, a short hop needs to be explained. Bunnies going for a hop is like you going for a walk but I notice you usually use cars and would probably do that here because you have to get to the next cache faster.
