Geocache Description:


Today marks my 20th Geo-anniversary. I found my first cache on 8/7/02 but did not create my account until the next day. Two years ago I carpet-bombed Lake Wheeler Park where I made my first find with 8 new caches to celebrate the day. Last year I celebrated the day with 9 new mix-tape puzzle caches. This year I am hiding 10 2-stage multi-caches to represent 20.

Who knew when I found that first cache in a tree stump it would lead to spending nearly 1/3rd of my life chasing after them, visiting all 100 counties in NC, all of the lower 48 states plus Alaska, and multiple countries to find more caches. But even more importantly, I have met some of the most wonderful people all around the globe through this game.

Twenty is sometimes referred to as a ‘score’. Score is related to share and comes from the Old Norse "skor" meaning a "notch" or "tally" on a stick used for counting. ... Often people counted in 20s; every 20th notch was larger, and so "score" also came to mean 20."

Twenty is the number of moves (quarter or half turns) required to optimally solve a Rubik's Cube in the worst case.

Twenty is the atomic number of calcium and the third magic number in physics.

Twenty can be used as an index in measuring visual acuity. 20/20 indicates normal vision at 20 feet, although it is commonly used to mean "perfect vision".

A standard dartboard is laid out as 20 sectors.

The Kentucky Derby currently has a maximum field of 20 horses.

I-20 runs 1,539 miles beginning near Kent, Texas, at I-10 to Florence, South Carolina, at I-95. Between Texas and South Carolina, I-20 runs through northern Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia.

I noticed some new townhouses were built nearby with their own little greenway section too. I wonder if Cary requires developers to include greenways that are added to the city's map? The developer has staked out a lot at this end for a sizable single family house. Both stages are outside of that perimeter and should still be accessible even if the lot sells and becomes a construction site. This one is pretty straightforward. You're looking for a camo'd bison at stage 1 and a small PB jar at stage 2.

Please be sure to rehide the containers well so that the next seeker can have the same fun as you did.
