Geocache Description:


There is no container at the posted coordinates, but it is the entrance to parking for this cache.  You need to solve the puzzle to find the coordinates to the cache.


Persimmon Pesky (of GC5WHCF, GCA23W5 and more recently GCA4A91) was out for a walk one day when she heard a voice in the woods.  When she stopped to listen, she realized that it was coming from a little pumpkin.

"I want to be the Queen of England!" cried the pumpkin to Persimmon. 

Persimmon hesistated, not wanting to squash the pumpkin's spirit.  She tried to explain about the line of succession, but the pumpkin wasn't having any of it. 

The next day Persimmon returned to the park. With a flourish, she presented a bejeweled crown to the pumpkin. "Now you can be Princess Pumpkin!" 

Princess Pumpkin decided that was good enough for her and she lived happily ever after.

Please locate the princess, who is currently perched in a tree stump.  The container she is in is not the best, but it was all Persimmon could scrounge up after spending so much on the crown.  (She stuck a piece of wood she found nearby on top to try to keep the lid on.  Please help her by replacing the wood when you are done talking to the princess.)

Here is the puzzle based on Persimmon's lesson-you may assume N40 17. and  W74 12.

 

Prince Archie of Sussex, The Duke of Sussex, Princess Charlotte of Wales

Prince Archie of Sussex, The Duke of Sussex, Princess Lilibet of Sussex
