Location

Resurrection Cemetery in Mendota Heights.

Participants

Plans

I got another notification soon after the previous puppet attempt, then realized Dad was no longer in St. Paul. So I asked a geocacher aunt.

  • me: Would anyone be interested in finding for me today a specific location in Resurrection Cemetery in Mendota Heights?
  • aunt: I think I can do that. Tell me more.
  • me: The task is to get as close as you can to the following coordinates, take a screenshot or something to prove it, a photo of what you find there, and maybe a selfie. 44.87867334°N 93.14859161°W https://goo.gl/maps/7mUFP3j5df3KHpfb9
  • me: In this case, if there's a grave right there it would be nice to know whose.
  • aunt: I'm on it! I'll go during the lunch hour and let you know what I find!


Expedition

Some back and forth while trying to get the map dot to line up better. The coordinates seemed to lead to the graves of a Ryan family: mother, father, and son. Likely the mother or father was closest.
