FOUND THIS ONE TODAY DURING MY LUNCH BREAK.... TFTC...

So about 7am this morning, I am getting ready for work, when I see Sherie reading this cache description. Seeing the cache type, I tell her that turtleguam and I went to the listed coords and its not near that mass of water. We literally almost took that fence down in that area. LOL So we look at the pictures posted, and from that we determined what area we should be searching. Its pretty cool since we are VERY familiar with the area, we skipped the whole puzzle, and found the cache.
For future cachers be advised that there are almost ALWAYS the rent a muggles around, and they are instructed to look for ANYTHING suspicious. Other than that, Thanks for the cache!!

One weekend a while back, sannnROX, Sher_BEAR, and I, begin trying to break this code. We stayed at my house so long and late that we cancelled whatever plans we had, ordered some pizza and each take an attempt. San ends up falling asleep that we knew we should look at it later, sleep on it. Well Sher)Bear breaks the code and we decide to get it later.

Now its later and we get to the GZ. The girls begin looking, I'm too fascinated with the fish that I didn't help. We find the cache under a rock, but who cares we just finished Blygoats gruff and we're already muddy. So some dirt on our hands is nothing.

Alls I have to say is that once again "clean-up committee" aka sherbear was imperative to the finding of this!

We've been breaking up the puzzles and she was working on this one while I was working on some others. She and josh still hadn't gotten it, so she asked our friends in Team Maga' Haga for a hint since they'd found it already. Faith was able to give her and hint and she got it! We head out to grab this one right after tackling Billy Goats Gruff.

So we're all at the GZ, no problems. Sher points and I hop on the area. I feel around I even touched the "R" that was hiding the cache, and peeked in. Nope, nothing, not here, move along. So I start to join josh as he's playing with the fish and then sher calls out "BINGO!"

I go back to where she's standing...she points, oh it was right there. I'm a little embarrased now...sher, I was just THERE!! haha. Then I see how dirty she is and ya, there was NO WAY I would've stuck my hand down there! Good Job SHERBEAR!!

Log was wet so we weren't able to sign.
TFTC!

Started working on this puzzle a few days ago with SannnRox and iJosh. After a while...i used my phone a friend option and contacted Faith from Team Maga'Haga. She pointed me in the right direction. Thanks again homie!

I <3 Geocaching!

Phew, if we ate all the ho-ho's and ding-dong's in this puzzle we would've needed a forklift to get us to GZ.

Suddenly the light dawned for lilmsmuffet and she knew exactly how to solve this puzzle! She's claiming the Twinkies made her do it! Anyway, we checked her answer and YES---she's so smart! So we are on our way!
At the site we are able to have a gentle stroll and a brief respite on the rocks...lilmsmuffet taking pictures and me grabbing the cache! A pretty easy find and a quick log!

My 3rd find with some help! It was exciting and beautiful location. I really enjoyed seeing the perana like fish wanting to eat you up!

OMG the fishes -- there must've been thousands in there! What if I fell in? OMG! Shake your keys and see these fishes go wild. I sware they must know that you are near by because they look like they were hoping to get some food.

Again, I didn't officially find the cache, but my husband did so yeah!

Love the hotel and hope to stay there one day!

When this one first came out, I learned of the code from jebest, but hadnt had the opportunity to make the trek. Stopped by it today with the cache owner and jebest to make the snag. TFTC.. another Jimp59 classic

YIPEEEE!!! my FIFTH and woohooo my 300th cache find! who would have thought I'll get this far! yeyyyy .. ok do I get a prize??? [:o)] When this cache came out, I got a very good hint and was on it in a snap. Well sorta kinda but not really! *if i've confused you good [:o)]*. Today was D day I finally got a chance to pick up this mystery baby, and all worth it. Great location, also peaceful. Did take the time to visit the pond and WOW! did u know the fish in there come right up to you in bundles? The kids would love to see that. . TY Jimp59 for taking me for another great day of geocaching! It was just perfect to get my 300th find on your cache! . Meant to be!

TNLN. TFTC.

After finally figuring out the puzzle I knew where to look for the prize. Stopped by this scenic little pond after visiting nearby jefalls, since we were out group caching with our group of family cachers, lead by M/M JIMP59. Good news, the pond appears to be on the high water mark, wouldn’t be surprised if it still has water after another month of the Guam sunshine. You’ll find this cache in totally awesome location within charming surroundings. Moreover, there are tons of fish in the pond, Pond-er-that. Best part of this hide is the cache location and how well it blends with its natural backdrop, especially for being somewhat exposed. Another great hide by JIMP59. TFTC SL TNLN

It all starts out with me watching the 6:00 pm news on KUAM TV8. I'm excited to see the segment on Geocaching with reporter John Davis that Jimp59 and I had the chance to participate in today. I receive a call from my son to move my car in the driveway so that he can bring his car in. I rush outside, do the deed and come in to find that the segment is half over. Dang, now I have to stay up for the 10:00 pm news. So, I'm now watching the 10:00 pm news and decide to check my e-mail again. That's when this cache pops up. I open it to find that it is a puzzle cache and get to work on it. Following the clue, I draw it out and as always, start to look for a pattern. Aha, got it and had the puzzle solved. Checked the geochecker and, yep, got it right. Less than 10 minutes to solve it and dang, forgot about the news. Missed the segment again. Oh well, there's always the internet. Too late to grab this one last night so went out this morning. Made the grab at 6:00 am and sure enough, FTF! Great puzzle cache and beautiful location. TFTC-SL
