Geocache Description:


The posted coordinates point to the US Embassy in Tel Aviv. 🇺🇸 The final location is somewhere else.

The United States started off as a union of 13 colonies, and over time it expanded, as new states joined.

As for the letters. Back in the days, in the dark ages before the internet or WhatsApp, we used to write letters. I myself wrote many letters to friend and family in the USA.

This puzzle is related to this subject.

 

Final location is at:

N 32 4.(IN*HI)-5

E 34 OK.(OH*ME)+12

Still puzzled? here's a little help - HI is higher than any of them.
