Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.  However, it's a great place to go to get a nice scenic view from the island and grab some nearby seafood.


My son, the real Jdawg, started reading a series called the Ranger's Apprentice that he thought I'd like.  They're written for young adults, so it didn't take me long to read the entire series.  It's fantasy adventure and is primarily about Will, the Ranger's Apprentice, and his friends Horace, a Knight, and Evanlyn, a King's Courier.  Evanlyn sent Will a coded message letting him know where to find a secret box.
