Geocache Description:


"Persimmon's pal, Pansy, is incredibly opinionated and dramatic. If she goes with Persimmon geocaching and they locate a cache, she will scream with joy and fling her arms around her friend with glee then do her patented happy dance. If Persimmon DNFs then Pansy can be found lying on the trail weeping. Sometimes for hours." -from GC5WHCF: Pesky Pervasive Personality Peculiarities.
 

Drama Queen Pansy has a lot of time on her hands ever since her best friend, Persimmon, started a pre-med program. So she decided to put her free time and personality to good use by getting involved in community theater. She scheduled an audition for a local production of "Six," a play about the wives of King Henry VIIIth. She decided to brush-up on her British history for inspiration, by reading some historical books and watching some tv series about the topic. After much research, she bought herself a crown and a gown and wore them everywhere she went. She was sure that her natural flare made her really well-suited to play a queen!
