PUBLIC LETTERBOX: This geocache is one in a Hybrid Letterbox series associated with U.S. Post Office Buildings. Posted (like in Post Office) Coordinates are on a public sidewalk outside of, across the street from, yet in view of, the Post Office Building (not collection boxes). Final Coordinates are in a public place a short distance away and are visible as a Waypoint for those who prefer not to follow the Path Description.
BONUS: Be sure to look for the Letter Alphabet Code if you want to complete the Bonus GCAHV69.
PATH DESCRIPTION: You as Geocacher will follow the path of a mailed Letter from the Post Office to Final Coordinates. Start at Andover Park W. Go South on public sidewalk past Burger King and its parking lot to Final Coordinates within the thick hedge. Approach on dirt path from sidewalk along hedge for best access and stealth. Look through hedge at metal light pole. Do not approach from Burger King parking lot.
LOGBOOK INSTRUCTIONS: This geocache's Logbook was originally a ribbon of hearts representing Love Letters. Sign on or around a heart; whatever your heart desires, is no longer. It is a regular paper log now, given the item going missing a lot.
LOVE LETTERS HISTORY: In 3rd Century BCE, the Song of Songs (Biblical Hebrew: שִׁיר הַשִּׁירִים, romanized: Šīr hašŠīrīm; Greek: Άσμα Ασμάτων; Latin: Canticum Canticorum), also called the Canticle of Canticles or the Song of Solomon, is an erotic poem, one of the five megillot('scrolls') in the Ketuvim ('writings'), the last section of the Tanakh. Around 3,500 BCE, a Sumerian clay tablet "Bilgames and Shaghat Nuptial Text" was an earliest written love letter. More than 5000 years ago, a love letter (in the Bhagavatha Purana, book 10, chapter 52), was carried from Rukmini to Krishna by her Brahmin messenger Sunanda. Today's Love Letters began in the early Renaissance at the start of the 14th Century and The Age of Chivalry. Fast forward to the computer age, on May 5, 2000, computer worm ILOVEYOU aka "LoveLetter" sent malicious emails pretending to contain Love Letters.
BLOCK STAMP FOR LETTERBOXERS: There is no longer a stamp due to going missing too many times. A teeny-weeny heart Block Stamp (not a Postage Stamp) was originally provided to stamp only on your own letterbox material. Original instructions were: Do not take this Block Stamp. Please bring and use your own Ink Pad as it is not provided.
Congratulations to DM&K Cachers for FTF.
