Weird find - any thoughts
Weird find - any thoughts
Doing a cache today at the top of one of Canberra's accessible and scenic hills, I came across a ziploc bag containing a folded piece of paper with the word Yogi on it. It was taped in a spot easy to find but out of the way of the casual observer. I originally thought that this may have been a new cacher trying to claim a find by leaving their own log so I opened the bag.
The enclosed paper had a circled number 4 in the top right corner and in equally neat writing the following on two lines :-
"Bees like movie theatres in their homes"
Anybody have any theories conspiracy or otherwise?

Yogi is the boyfriend, 4 is the (approaching) number of years they've known each other, the bees etc is a hint. It's a game, he's up there now looking for the bag, he found the other three, something's wrong.
You have the bag .......

Re: Weird find - any thoughts
my only theory is, this is the fourth bag that "Yogi" has to find, on a treasure hunt or something, around canberra.
Now, "Bees like movie theatres in their homes???" where/what could that be? now i want to go searching for number 5..

You had the piece of paper the wrong way up! It was addressed to IGOY, the well known hermit bee-keeper of Red Hill who was looking to have a Monty Python video night............... or maybe not !

I hate to say it, but if this is a 'private' treasure hunt then I reckon the clue is more likely to be referencing a specific house (i.e. someone known to both the hider and the seeker) with a home theatre system rather than a movie cinema.

Nothing to do with The Hive Gallery then?
Sounds like a cryptic scavenger hunt type thing - dangerous thing to leave lying about with geocachers on the prowl I guess I'm not the only one who's eye gets drawn to ribbons tied in trees, chalk arrows and the like then

I too found this today and intially thought it was another plain sight hide, but Yogi didn't fit with the cache. There was a guy sitting nearby reading a book so maybe he was waiting for Yogi to find his clueMcPhan wrote:Doing a cache today at the top of one of Canberra's accessible and scenic hills, I came across a ziploc bag containing a folded piece of paper with the word Yogi on it.
