October is the tenth month of the year and has 31 days in it. The word October comes from the Latin word "octo", mean eight. October was the 8th month of the year, but when January and February were added, it became the 10th month. Pretty confusing, yes? October is the 2nd month of the Autumn season and during this month most of the leaves turn from their spring and summer green to their dazzling reds and oranges. There are two birthstones for the month of October and they are opal and pink tourmaline. October's flower is the calendula. And finally, the two Zodiac signs for October are Libra and Scorpio.

About this cache:
The cache that you are seeking is at the listed coordinates above. I have provided the nearest parking to the container below. The container that you are seeking is a medium sized lock n lock container. Because this cache is a letterbox hybrid, there is a stamp and ink pad inside the container. They are in their own lock n lock to keep them dry. The stamp and ink pad are NOT swag, so please do not take them. If the stamp does end up stolen, an imprint of the stamp is on the inside of the cover. You will need this information for GC9WEJ8. The cache is located not very far off the trail. This cache is in Round Hill Park. The hours for Round Hill are dawn to dusk. So, please no night caching for this cache. You could encounter people horseback riding in the park. Please yield to any horseback riders that you do see along the trails. Please stay on the trails for as long as you can to not bushwhack to the container.
