I've been looking forward to this day for six years. Around this time in 2011 we rented a house in Eagle Ridge for a few days with some other family members. I spent a part of each day with my brother, teaching him the ropes of geocaching. By the end of our last full day we had made it through #9.
On our departure day I went out solo, trying to finish off the series, while everyone else was packing to go home. I raced through Chapters 10 to 13, but as I was writing down the coordinates and clues for this cache I got a call telling me the agreed upon time limit was up, and we had to leave.
--fast forward six years-- I had taken good notes, and read all the logs. I was 99% sure I knew just what I had to do to access the cache. We arrived at the locale and had a pleasant walk to GZ. We soon spotted the cache, and it was just as I expected. A couple of twists and turns...and the cache was opened!!!!Signed in, secured the cache as we found it, and we were finally on our way to the final!
