Geocache Description:

This is a three part multi cache, taking you from the beautiful Spohr Gardens to Falmouth Conservation land. Part one is a virtual site, where you will find a keyword to solve a Vigenere Cipher. Part two is solving the cipher. The solution to the cipher will give you the coordinates to part three, a traditional cache filled with goodies.

Welcome to Spohr Gardens, a well kept Falmouth secret. These gardens are private property (there is no physical cache here), open to the public from 8 to 8 every day. This 6 acre garden is the treasure of this Geocache. Plan to spend extra time here enjoying the area, it's amazing in the Springtime. The coordinates should lead you to a large metal object, where the first name of the foundry owner who cast it is the keyword to solving the cipher. The Ciphertext coordinates to the final cache are as follows:

BWCEG OZALP RZEQO BSTZT KBQGP XOUJB PTOHF JQYPB YZEVP XQNGP MDYWR FDIYO AEHAV EJLES NMPDB HUNBJ DMVQJ XZTVT FDZPP AEHAV EJUIZ QBPDE EEP

You will need to do a little research to decode the cipher, I recommend starting with a google search...The final stage of this will take you hiking on Falmouth conservation land. Parking is on a side street, and your hike should be no longer than .3 miles each way. The cache is located about 50 feet from the trail which can be easily hiked by children. You are looking for an ammo box full of kids toys. The ammo box and some of the contents are recycled from a previous cache called Brockway Branch. Read some of the early logs for entertainment. Good luck hunting!
