Geocache Description:

 ​THIS CACHE ONLY AVAILABLE M-F 10 to 6 and SAT. 9 to 4.  This is the first cache in a mini-series about BEES! Cache is NOT at the coordinates. Don't go there, instead answer the  6 easy questions about BEES and solve for N 39 47.ABC and W 077 03.DEF.  There is a cute FTF prize at the register, starts with a B but is not a BEE! May ask for Rosella.
