Melody & Rhythm Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

CTReviewer: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting. I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
CTReviewer

Geocache Description:

WARNING: There is NO container at coords above--that's just parking.

Here are the coords:

For giggles, please include in your log any instruments you've played. Enjoy! --Randy

PS:
Kudos to The Ax who (w/KiddKerouac's assistance) scored (pun intended!) the FTF (without the details below).

For those who haven't read music before, read on...



The first note (oval) is a "whole" note, the next (with stem) is a "half" note, the third (solid w/stem) a "quarter" and last few (solid stem w/flag) are "eighth" notes.

The symbol that looks like the number 7 is an eighth rest (no note played, just wait a beat).

The curved line that "ties" a couple notes together means you hold that note for the total amount of beats.

The seven notes correspond to letters, the one beneath the bottom line is "D", the bottom line is "E", the bottom space (between lines) is "F", the 2nd line from bottom is "G" but then the next space is "A", the middle line "B" and so on. (Meaning the top line is also "F" but an octave higher.)

Did I mention chords (two notes stacked) are played together at the same time?

...for more help Google: "how to" "read music"
