Geocache Description:

** This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates **


I don’t mean to preach, but people really should read more. And with many books available for free or almost free on the internet and elsewhere, there’s really no good excuse not to.

Of course, not all books are the same. They can be fiction or non-fiction, or a little of both; some may leave it up to the reader to decide. Some books, it turns out, are really collections of separate, stand-alone books. Others are collections of letters or journals written by the characters or author. But despite the differences, almost all books are divided into sections or chapters. Some, though rarely, are even subdivided further.

The most popular books (based on numbers sold) are available in multiple languages, and even multiple versions within the languages. This might happen if the original text was written in an ancient or “Old World” style of speaking. The intent, of course, is to make the book as easy to read and understand as possible for as many people as possible. However, when this is done, every effort is made to maintain the accuracy, effectiveness, and “spirit” of the original.

According to Joseph Addison, “Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.” So when you’re not exercising your body by going Geocaching, consider exercising your mind by reading a good book (might even help you solve more mystery caches!)

Have fun and happy hunting. As Robin might say, “Holy numbers, Batman!”

Note: Please help keep the "mystery" in this mystery cache! If posting pictures and/or logs, please take care not to give away too much information. If you absolutely must post a picture, consider your background and especially details on the container itself. After all, we want everyone to have to work (at least a little) on this one, just like you did!
