The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. Solve the puzzle to locate the cache. -------- puzzle starts here --------- Eight months after a FTF at Too Much Sushi, Fork L Man met up with Seek DaCache, DaToad, and DaWife (who had all found the cache that first day) to solve some mysterious geocaches. These cachers joined forces with sleuthers and ernie66 to obtain the clue of the dancing puppet so that they could solve the mystery of crocodile island. Vorticity joined in, and said "What a croc," we need to be working for world peace, doing some CITO projects, or trying to solve the mystery at Lilac Inn (with 8 straight DNFs so far). They all agreed on the latter. They didn't have GPS coordinates, so the first step was the quest of the missing map. They logged onto geocaching.com only to find out that they needed a premium account. They got in by hacking the user name and the password. To Larkspur Lane they went according to the map, however once they got there, Miles ToGeo and Lord Mike asked for their assistance in solving the double jinx mystery, which had 8 days of nothing but DNFs. Being the kind and helpful geocachers that they were, they headed to the haunted carousel where it seemed they were all being watched by the emerald-eyed cat. Mystery time was truncated when Salugie arrived, and he and FLM took TWO BIG STEPS TO THE NORTH and turned on their geolights. They discovered a loose piece of black camo tape in the mirror image of the cat. Upon closer examination, they found a small 3" round IKEA container near the front-right leg of the figurine. While everyone scrambled to sign the log, uciphd and TatteredShoes arrived yelling "Woohoo!" (probably excited about getting an easy smiley). With the mystery solved, they all skipped the Inn, and proudly strutted down (with their feet well in front) to the Underneath Cafe (since The Sink in Boulder was too far away) to celebrate their success.  Congrats to sleuthers on FTF!!!! Congrats to uciphd on Eighth to Find -------- puzzle ends here --------- Note: I added a container with a new log on August 21, 2016. So, it is a regular cache now, instead of a virtual-puzzle. The left-front placement is now valid; however the months of July and August are NOT recommended due to the number of wasps/hornets that are in the area. An alternate smiley is offered by just sending a digital picture (jpeg image) of what you see when you take two steps to the North, or take a picture of the container (bigger than a 35mm film container, which should be a safe act even during the hot summer months).
