Geocache Description:

No, it's not AAA baseball, though there are fields nearby.... and no, it's not the computer company IBM, though there are manufacturers nearby.

This is a multi-cache located near the Anderson Abruzzo Albuquerque International Balloon Museum. The museum is an exciting addition to the Albuquerque ballooning atmosphere. Note the design of the building. From the front it looks like a "cold inflating" balloon lying on the ground, but the back of the building looks like a "hot inflated" upright balloon.

The coordinates will take you to a sign, from which you must answer the following questions.
A = the number of "Z"s on the sign
B = the number of "A"s on the sign

Now go to the cache, which is located at the coordinates:
N 35 11.34A W 106 36.01B

The cache will be difficult to access during the first full week of October, when the area will be very busy, and will have traffic control and security measures around. Otherwise, it should be easy to get to. The cache is a fairly large plastic container, covered in duct tape. Please be sure to put it back in it's "holder" (it only fits one way) and to hide it well. Thanks for your efforts.

Original contents: log, pens, hackey sack, super ball, mini deck of cards, geocaching pin, Lemonade balloon card, kazoo, pencil, spikey ball and for FTF, a USMC Presidential Helicopter Squadron Patch.
