It's a goner.

Geocache Description:

Fifth in the "Plain 'Ol Puzzle" series. The nano cache is not at the posted coordinates, but it is within a mile. Solve the puzzle to determine the real coordinates. Bring your own pen! And now, the puzzle:

Since the premier announcement in the POP4 puzzle cache, the bathroom remodeling project continues. Here's a progress update. I began installation of the beautiful blue tile since the last report. Fortunately the tile arrived on time, and with no broken pieces, so i thought all would proceed smoothly. The actual installation has been a bit of a challenge, however. Carefully, i put rows of tile upon the wall, but the tiles didn't want to stay in place. Openings in the tile field are quite evident, as you can see in the photo. Later, as i reflected on this project, i realized i should have done some things differently. So at least you can find a cache as a result of this mess.

note: no programming or math skills required!
