Geocache Description:

This is an easy multi-cache intended to get you to stop and have a look at this unique fountain.

Have you stopped and looked at Earth Fountain up close? That’s the name of this sculpture, and the description of it on the plaque near the fountain explains all you need to know. You’ll learn that there’s more to this fountain that the average driver passing on Camp Bowie notices.

If you’re like most people, you’ve never bothered to stop and venture over. People using the bus stop have a chance to see it up close all the time, however.

To find the cache, examine the plaque. You’ll see 3 lines detailing the sculptor, the name of the fountain, and what it’s made of. Below that are 7 lines of text. The 6th word on the 4th line is one you probably don’t use in conversation very often.

If the word contains…

12 letters, go to N 32° 43.921 W 097° 24.505.

11 letters, go to N 32° 44.020 W 097° 23.978.

4 letters, a hyphen and 6 more letters, go to N 32° 44.141 W097° 23.863.

If none of these answers are correct, go to N 32° 44.200 W 097° 23.823.

At the cache location, you can glance across the street and see another piece of public art.
