Geocache Description:

This is a small cylindrical geocache 4.5 in long by 1.5 inches wide with only room for a log and short ink pen. It is located in a friendly neighborhood park where you will find many people walking their dogs and sometimes even see a Shih Tzu family being given a ride in a dog stroller!
(Note: The Dog Stroller (TB5EBNZ) and the TB's it contains are all trackables)

The name of this geocache was given because it is a great location to give your dogs buggy rides, dog walks, people walks, etc. As one of Wilmington’s many neighborhood parks, James E.L. Wade Park was opened to the public in January 2009. It covers 17 acres and has several amenities including: ½ mile (10 foot wide) multi-use path, restrooms, picnic shelter, playground and open play area, educational/interpretive signage, an existing building was left on the site that may be utilized as an education center and space for public rentals as additional funding become available. The park is named for former Mayor and community activist James E. L. Wade. He served on the Wilmington City Council from 1945 – 1963. The park also serves as critical habitat for native and migratory birds, animals, and plants and is the largest constructed storm water wetland in the area.

The geocache is not at the posted coordinates. Geocache is located at N34° 10.6AB W77° 52.7CD where
X = number of bridges in Wade Park
Y = number of picnic tables near the bathrooms
Z = number of swings in the black bordered area near bathrooms
A = X+1
B = Z+2
C = Y+1
D = X+Y

Please note that this geocache had a difficulty rating of 4.5 due to the possible needs of some special geocaching tools such as a black light, a strong magnet and a cleaver mind to solve puzzles. I would have given this a difficulty rating of 5.0 but I wanted to leave some room for some future geocaches. Many of the ideas in this geocache were inspired by BigD1976’s geocache GC4ZM96, SugarDaddy09’s geocache GC6DG9K and Fraygirls’ geocache GC25X5T.
(The difficulty rating was later changed to "2.5" to reflect the easier puzzle that is now in place.) Good luck and “Happy Geocaching”.

Special note: Locate the "Red Herring" which is a black PCV tube with a combination lock in the general area of GC. The geocache is well-hidden within 10 feet. Happy Hunting! ===================================================================================
