Geocache Description:


Note: This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. To determine the correct coordinates answer the multiple choice question below. The correct answer to the question will correlate with the correct coordinates. You may know the answer right off, or it may take some minor research.

Sitcoms have long been a cornerstone of television, dating back to almost the birth of television itself. The 1950’s saw the introduction of several sitcoms. This geocache will relate to: I Love Lucy.

I Love Lucy – 1951 -1957.  Bandleader Ricky Ricardo would be happy if his wife Lucy would just be a housewife. Instead, she constantly tries to perform at his club, the Tropicana, and make life comically frantic in the apartment building they share with landlord and best friends, Fred and Ethel Mertz.

Question: Ricky and Lucy eventually had a child. What is the child’s name?

A: Robert – N 45° 44.896 W 084° 40.839

B: Michael - N 45° 44.901 W 084° 40.848

C: Fred - N 45° 44.911 W 084° 40.850

D: Little Ricky - N 45° 44.900 W 084° 40.848

If you choose to seek this cache, you will be looking for a hanging Pre-Form tube. It is located along the Midland to Mackinac 'Rails To Trails' (RTT) system.

Note: After “Heavy” rains or an extra wet spring season, tall rubber boots may be required to access many of these RTT Challenge Caches in comfort (stay dry).

 

The container DOES NOT contain a pen. Please bring a writing utensil with you. Excuses such as “no pen in container” or “I forgot to bring a pen” do not work for non-signed logs.
