NOTE - Box pulled 7/1/2006 due to freaking geocachers stealing the stamp!!!! Stay tuned for us to find a new - freaking cache-free - location and redo the word search.
To find this box, you'll have to complete the word search below -- but you need to figure out what the word list is first! After you find all the words in the puzzle, read the unused letters, top to bottom, left to right, to find the location of the box.
General notes: The answers to the puzzle can be found online, although you'll need to access more than one site. When the answer is a number, we've indicated whether we're looking for digits or the number spelled out. The number of words and letters are indicated thusly:
(2 words-5,6) means the answer is 2 words with the first word having 5 letters and the second word 6 letters. If there is no indication, assume that the answer is one word and the number of letters or numbers is indicated by the number of underlined spaces. Hyphens and commas are indicated where pertinent. When you are searching for the words in the grid, ignore spaces, hyphens and commas.

You will be in a residential area, surrounded by windows and decks -- be sensible! Do not go for this box if there are people around the area or visible on decks.
DO NOT remove the extra nut - it is only there to keep the bag from sliding off the bolt. When you replace the bag, make sure you anchor the strings securely between the nuts.
Good luck, and we hope you enjoy your hunt!
