Geocache Description:


*IMPORTANT* Open the cache carefully to avoid spillage!  Open velcro "wings" on ends first and make sure cache is right side up when opening tabs.

Once upon a time, there was a tiny baby dragon that loved shiny things.  One day, while he was exploring a small cave, he came upon a pile of teeny-tiny gems, just the right size for him to frolic in.  As he jumped in and out of the pile of gems, he noticed something sticking to his scales.  Looking down, he discovered it was a much bigger gem than all the others.  "I wonder what that's for," he peeped, touching the part he could reach gently with his miniscule claws.  The gem seemed to shift slightly.  He chirped in surprise, and touched the gem again, this time twisting it a little. 

A long scroll of parchment came out of the gem, and the baby dragon cast his eyes over the writing on the scroll.  "These look like names," he thought to himself, "but they aren't the names of any dragons I know.  They must be HUMAN names!"  The baby dragon looked over the list of names with excitement, realizing that this scroll was the start of a collection.  Dragons are notorious collectors.  There is a dragon who collects small souvenir spoons, another one who collects duck figurines, and one who collects broken mug handles.  If you have ever had a cell phone charger that mysteriously disappeared, it might have been the work of the dragon who collects cell phone chargers.  I've even heard of a dragon that collects smiley faces on a map, though that one seems a bit too weird to be true.  Anyway, the baby dragon decided at that moment what his life's work would be: collecting human names.  He spends most of his time waiting, in the pile of gemstones, for humans to add their names to his collection. 

After you help the baby dragon with his collection, you could continue down the trail to the next chapter of the story, Dragons' Lair (GCAGHW3).
