A short 2 stage multi. Final has a pencil, but you may want to bring a writing implement of your own. Be careful when removing and replacing the 2nd stage, make sure to put it back as you found it. As always, be discreet when others are about. Please observe and respect the posted rules and hours of operation at both stages.
This cache is dedicated to Brian Piccolo of the Chicago Bears:
The final line from the movie based upon his life says it all so I'll just quote it here: "Brian Piccolo died of cancer at the age of 26. He left a wife and three daughters. He also left a great many loving friends who miss and think of him often. But when they think of him, it's not how he died that they remember - but how he lived. How he did live!". At the listed coordinates you will find his final resting spot in the St. Mary Cemetery:
In order for you to get to the 2nd and final stage you will need to locate the gravestone just to the right of Brian's (as you are reading his). On it you will see 2 years. The 1st year is the birth (B) and the 2nd year is the death (D). Take the years and insert them into the equations below to get the final coordinates:
N41° 45.879'
-_____B.BBB'
N41° XX.XXX'
W087° 40.330'
+______D.DDD'
W087° XX.XXX'
The area where the final is located is one that I think Brian would have liked.
Here is a website devoted to Brian: Bears History- Brian Piccolo, and here is a link to the movie (one of my favorites) that this cache is named after: Brian's Song.
