Hubby and I went on a picnic. I packed all the important stuff, like Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwiches, chips, beans and an apple for each of us. And of course an ink pen, just in case there was a cache in the park. Well, I opened the basket and we enjoyed our lunch until I pulled out the apples. Handed one to hubby and got mine and then I looked at it. It was filled with lots and lots of holes. Then I saw a note at the bottom of the basket.

Picture of the note:




Of course, I WAS intrigued, so I did solve the puzzle and found the cache.

Can you?
