Geocache Description:

Published coordinates bring you to the sign shown below, cache is not there. You will need to find more of these signs and answer other questions to solve the mystery and find the cache. Note that you do not need to leave Murray Road to solve the puzzle or find the cache.

For many years, I have taken this little backdoor to get to Route 10 businesses and spotted this sign and wondered why this road would be closed on Thanksgiving Day. The only theory that I can come up with is these warehouses used to have a lot of activity on Thanksgiving Day delivering goods for Black Friday. Anyway, answer the puzzles below about Murrays to get the coordinate to the final cache at:
