Geocache Description:

Why Prime? Because this is a Prime cache in a Prime location.

The coordinates listed are indeed the coordinates where the cache is located. They are also accurate. So what makes this a puzzle? Well just imagine that that you arrive on this spot and find the cache. Somehow you feel like there is something you need to do that is missing. Somehow you do not feel like you have totally solved this puzzle or maybe you are not sure you have even found the cache. That reminds me of a story.

There were three men in a bar smoking Cuban cigar. Theirs names were Chen, Dirichlet, and Mersenne. They were talking about their Cousins Higgs, Motzkin, and Wagstaff.

Chen says to Cousin Dirichlet, “Do you know what is the thickness of Cousin Higgs hair?” Dirichlet said that he didn’t but maybe Cousin Wagstaff would know. Cousin Wagstaff is very Lucky. Cousin Motzkin interjected that they were all Lucky. It is true, they were all Lucky even thou they were very Regular types.

By this time everyone was getting depressed because you see they were not the Happy type. Cousin Mersenne decided to try to cheer everyone up so he thought that if they talked about their exploits that they would all feel better.

Cousin Mersenne says, as he takes a puff on his Cuban cigar, “Did you know how many times Cousin Wagstaff told me he kissed his girlfriend? The other two Cousins said they didn’t know. Cousin Mersenne admitted he didn’t remember exactly either but he did remember something related. He seemed to remember it was the same number of times Don Juan, played by John Barrymore, did something, he couldn’t remember what, in the movie by the same name. They all thought that was pretty neat.

Well that cheered them up but they were still not Happy. Cousin Chen then noted that at least they all had that in common. Cousin Dirichlet said there was one other thing that they had in common that was very important also. He started to tell them but instead he had a coughing fit from his Cuban cigar and forgot what he was going to say.

Sorry, I got off the point and I can’t remember the rest of the story anyway. Now what was I saying? Oh yes, if you feel like you aren’t quite finished you probably aren’t.

I am not sure how difficult this will be so I will rate it a three star. Please give me feedback on how hard you think it is. I think this could be a two tripper. The story will probably make more sense after you visit one time. Be respectful of private property. Have fun.
