I was discussing my new mystery cache with my grandmother. She suggested I use a puzzle based on mathematics, like algebra, geometry , or trigonometry. "No, no, gram," I said. "Too many cachers have numerophobia. I want to include as many as possible." My grandmother then suggusted I use What3Words. "No, no, gram," I think that is used too often and is too easily recognized. "Well," she said, there are so many great ciphers. How about  the Playfair cipher, or the Kenny code, or the Pigpen cipher.?" "No, no, gram," I replied. "I am looking for something different."

So this is what I came up with. Have fun!
