Old Mine Park Series: Dune Mystery Cache

Welcome to the Old Mine Park Series

The books are:

1. Dune, by Frank Herbert
2. The Dragonriders of Pern, by Anne McCaffrey.
3. The Princess Bride, by William Goldman.

For everybody who expected the next book in the book series to be The Scarlet Pimpernel, or perhaps even War and Peace, this will offer a nice change from the classics. The cache is guarded by a keeper. Please do not remove.

Dune, by Frank Herbert. Excellent for die hard science fiction fans, as is the movie directed by David Lynch. The movie is not for the feint hearted, but it pales by today's standards. Although is was poorly received when it was first released, it has become a cult classic.

Wow, your name is really hard to rhyme.
I've tried and tried, time after time.
Well, never mind.
Congratulations on being first to find.

Note: Old Mine Park is a "rail to trail park" and parking is not restricted to Trumbull residents.

Duke Leto Atreides: I'll miss the search, but a person needs new caches. They jar something deep inside, allowing a person to grow. Without caches something sleeps inside us, and seldom awakens. The cachers must awaken.

Paul Atriedes: Long live the cachers!

Baron Harkonnen: He who control the caches, controls the universe.

Feyd-Rautha: Who is the little one, a cache perhaps? Will it deserve my special attention?

Gurney Halleck: The slow approach penetrates the cache.

Piter De Vries: It is by will alone I set this cache in motion. It is by the juice of Sapho that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set this cache in motion.
