Geocache Description:

A nice little cache in a cool little neighborhood.  This cache is designed to make you laugh; along with finding a container, it's always nice to bring a joke back.  I wouldn't walk from Route 4;  the best idea is to drive, and there are no sidewalks.  Other than that, this is a pretty neat hide to find.

The day my brother, JackP3, and I hid this was one day before a caching trip to Oregonia.  I came up with the container because I had an extra one after a muggled final (and our dog chewed up the micro). I've been trying to make a cache out of it, and this was the final result.  There was one location that was really promising, but the Velcro on the back of the cache wouldn't stick, so we found a simpler GZ.  Plus, my GPS battery died.  The whole thing turned out extremely well, and I couldn't be prouder.

The container is a small Altoids container, with a piece of camo duct tape across it.  Velcro on the back of the cache keeps it in place.  Also, on the inside of the lid is a short list of "You Know You're A Geocacher When..." to lighten the mood and put a smile on your face.

While I was researching material for the cache, I found a really funny limerick:

Two brothers named Wong couldn't quite
Pull off their first aeroplane flight
When their rig crashed and burned
They finally learned
Two Wongs never could make a Wright.

Because of that, my dad and I made something up that's absolutely hillarious:

Two Wongs don't make a Wright.
Three Wrights make a left.
Four lefts make a square.
Five squares make a chess club.
Six clubs make a flush.
Seven flushes make a toilet overflow.
Eight overflows make the Little Miami.
Nine Little Miamis make Cuba.
Is that Wong?

Good luck, and as always, have fun. Note: If you happen to see any muggles, be sure to explain to them about the sport of geocaching. Congratulations to counselortroi for FTF honors!
