Description
Beryllium
Beryllium is a chemical element with symbol Be and atomic number 4. It is a relatively rare element in the universe.
The commercial use of beryllium requires the use of appropriate dust control equipment and industrial controls at all times because of the toxicity of inhaled beryllium-containing dusts that can cause a chronic life-threatening allergic disease in some people called berylliosis. Emerald are a naturally occuring compound of Beryllium, so dont grind them up and sniff them.
This series of caches is dedicated to the Elements and the Periodic Table. While my aim is to get them all out eventually - they will broken down into subsets of caches - in this case 7 caches, 6 Traditionals and a Puzzle cache as follows :
Trad - GA10205 Hydrogen (find 'a')
Trad - GA10206 Helium (find 'b')
Trad - GA10207 Lithium (find 'c')
Trad - GA10208 Beryllium (find 'd')
Trad - GA10209 Boron (find 'e')
Trad - GA10210 Carbon (find 'f')
which you can then use to find
Mystery - GA10211 Nitrogen (find 'AA' for future reference) at S35 10.abc E149 14.def
Good Luck and Happy Hunting !

I always enjoyed chemistry at school - just like my Dad !
Today I decided to take advantage of the fabulous weather and the May Madness and go caching with the GCA caches in my sight. There were plenty to be had so I planned a circuit up to Gunning and then across to Sutton and home again via the Federal highway service road. Had to do a detour via Breadalbane to avoid driving back through a large Road Bike Race but all is well.
I found all 6 in the series but ran out of time to go for the final. Another day. All logs were signed some as SG and caches returned to their hidey holes. Thanks for the series Fitzy_1965.

Again good coordinates lead to a quick find but we had to wait a little while as the traffic was getting heavier. We were glad we had almost finished this little group of caches.
Thanks for this cache Fitzy_1965.

Thanks Fitzy_65 for the fun and the cache.
Todays little sojourn took me down a road I have been down before, with one of the caches right outside a horse property I've been to many times. Didn't look like anyone was home today, so it was on to the next one.
Thanks fitzy, a neat little series that has so many options for a puzzle or two. Look forward to finding a few more.
A nice elementary drive by grab for a *FTF* with Jac.
