Geocache Description:

There was a young sailor from the North called 'Johnson'. He's a Deckhand and turned twenty-one while voyaging aboard the ship named 'Juneau'. They were fifteen days out of port when a mighty gale set in. The Captain ordered three of the sails to be lowered. Leaving only a storm staysail up and the crew of three's morale down. That evening 'CRider', the First Mate, looked out a porthole and said "A red sky at night, sailor's delight". Yes, the storm had passed and what a glorious sunset! Then after rigging the nine foot whisker pole to the spinnaker sail they headed West. This one hundred and fifty seven foot ship was nicely making way for the next four days. At eight bells of the morning watch, 'Johnson', spotted five islands in the distance. After a while 'Juneau' was anchored off a beautiful green isle. Captain 'Dolango' gave the order for all to disembark and get aboard the tender. As they arrived on the sandy beach, the sound of laughter was heard and they saw a most wonderful sight. Four lovely island maidens, bearing gifts and wearing only very large smiles. Aloha!
They said, draping the sailors in nine lei's. The Captain then announced...
"We're home boys!"


From the First Finder's log... August 4, 2006 by sillygirl & jrr As the song says, "It's Aloha Friday...," must be time to cache! All sorts of firsts: first Friday in August, first 1 star puzzle cache on Oahu, our first "Alaskan" cache, and in addition we are FTF. No need for new path, but make sure you are on correct path hint: keep in mind terrain rating. SL. TFTC, MM (aka Oahu's Official Ambassador of Geocache Aloha).
