Geocache Description:


Welcome to the TPWD series which stands for Tom Plays With Ducks.  Tom, aka Electric Water Boy, gave me the idea for the name since he had worked for TPWD, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, and I currently do. This is a geo-art  series containing 24 puzzle caches and 1 wherigo cache. The series has 3 main categories: wildlife, state parks in Texas and lakes in Texas.  TEN of the puzzle caches are GADGET caches, all found in AMMO CANS.  The difficulty rating is higher on the gadgets because you have to solve the puzzle and actual gadget cache.  You must sign all logs to get credit for the cache.  Good luck!

**All certitude keywords will have NO spaces and they will all be lower-case.**
