Geocache Description:


It's a boy! And...a girl!...and...another boy!

This is one of a set of triplets, the spawn of Copperfield Rose's "Mother's Day" cache, placed in early May, 2006. I found it on the 5th of May, so (appropriately enough) my triplets are named Cinco, Dee, and Mayo. :)

Unfortunately, the triplets have been kidnapped by the "Evil Micro", who has hidden them in places around town. Luckily, he's not terribly original when it comes to choosing hiding spots. It could even be the case that the triplets' names will help give their locations away!

You are looking for "Cinco", one of the boys. Cinco is trapped inside a 35mm film canister containing a log and ten blue flower beads; one each for the first ten finders. Each of the other triplets will have ten beads of a different color (I may add more beads at a later date - for now, ten is all that will fit!). Find the beads from all three of the triplets, and you'll have a nifty matching set!

The cache also contains a token "prize" for the first-to-find - a blue button in the shape of a child's handprint.

Written on the back of the log sheet are part of a set of coordinates that will lead you to the location of the "Evil Micro"'s secret hideout. Find all three triplets, and they'll help lead you to him!

Please be careful when retrieving this cache as the lid is prone to pop off. Please BYOP (Bring Your Own Pen!) as it's a very small container.


*** 07/01/06 - The log sheet has been replaced, and tiny slips of paper bearing "Cinco"'s part of the set of coordinates for the "Evil Micro Geocache" have been added. I've also added 12 more blue beads. If, for some reason, you find the cache and do not find a bead or the coordinates, please let me know and I'll hook you up.
