Geocache Description:

The posted coords are for the parking lot. This cache is at a nice little city park neighborhood playground. The cache itself is close enough to the playground that your little ones can play while you hunt it.

FTF prize is a pair of handmade earrings (yes, made by me). Congratulations to Team Teuton on the FTF!

This is a city park, do not search for this cache after 9pm as there are ordinances against being in city parks after 9:00.

If you know your nursery rhymes well enough, the kids can play at the playground while you solve the puzzle to get the cache coordinates.

How many blind mice are there? Call that A.

How many were going to St. Ives? That's B. (I always think of Die Hard 3 when I hear that rhyme/riddle!)

When Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard, how many bones did she have for her dog? Call that C.

What denomination pound note did the Owl & the Pussycat wrap their money in? That's D.

How many days old is the Pease Pudding in the pot? That's E.

Subtract B from E and you'll get F.

Subtract A from E and you'll get G.

When the ants go marching, what number are they on when the little one stops to pray to Heaven? That's H.

Plug and chug...
