Geocache Description:

OK ... OK So it's NOT a cave. After all, this IS Florida!

This one is for kids of all ages ... a bit of fun named after Lord Voldemort, the evil wizard in the Harry Potter Stories.
It uses a simple puzzle code to make it a bit more interesting.


We thought this great spot needed a cache! There is another cache on this beach but is a long walk or needs a boat, but these can both be done on a "day at the beach"!


This cache is small container with just a log, hidden less than .2 miles from the parking. Bring your own pen.

PLEASE make sure you replace the treasure just as you found it to shield it from "non-wizards" - human or otherwise!

BTW ... The listed coordinates are roughly for the Pay n'Park area.

And now for the REST of the story ...

Every time we pass Waldemere St in Sarasota, the similarity of the names reminds Tom of


LORD VOLDEMORT, "HE WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED".

Go figure!!
(Don't bother to write, our insurance won't cover analysis)

Anyway, It's just a simple number/letter substitution code with a tiny little trick.
Here's the real location:


(9) CI HG GNJ (14) AKC CB AHA
Remember !!! You cannot use his name!
You MUST check your answers for this puzzle on the Geo-checker..


BUT WAIT … We almost forgot! This cache was sponsored by


The MIRACLE RADIO COMPANY!!! (See Note)

They provided the First-Finders Prize when it was first placed!

A Technical Note: The Miracle Electronics Corporation makes radios that have such a unique industry reputation for quality such that it was widely said ...

" If it sounds GOOD ... it's a MIRACLE !!!"

Congratulations to zig&zag for being First To Find! (1/23/2006)
Now they can experience the extreme limits of radio receiver technology!!
