How can anyone ever find that?

I don't hate all puzzle geocaches, just the ones I can't solve! No No No!
Let me turn that around. I like puzzles that I can solve. I can just let the others go.

The last cache I found was a puzzle. it was a month ago on Sept. 10.
I found "Robbing the Nancy Hanks II"
This is a great puzzle if you are into puzzles. It is fun, but a hair puller at the same time.

Some background:
Sometime back I got all dishearten about the geocoins. I decided to just set on mine for awhile.
People was following my logs, and going behind to caches even if they had already found.
They were hunting my coins. Nothing wrong with that, unless you already had a handful of them.
Anyway I had not put out any in a while, and my friend LZ had make a very long hike and found
one of my coins. He had heard I had a few Limit Edition coins, and ask for one.
He said he knew I didn't like to just hand them out, so he said he would go to any cache that I
picked out, to get one. I knew about a puzzle cache that had not been found in a few years, and just
had one or two finders. With help from Slay we made the trip to, and after about three hours we
found "Pocket full of Change".

I challenge LZ to find it for a pocket full of geocoins. He make a few trips and a lot of time, but after
a lot of me laughing at him from me he found it.
End of background:

When the puzzle "Robbing the Nancy Hanks II" was born I would just ignore it, but it had my picture on it.
A challenge if I ever seen one. I ask Owl the great puzzle solver for help. He put hours and hours plus miles
and miles to the area to check out leads. Me and him went together and made a lot of water hauls.
I couldn't let it die. I only solve it after many hours and putting pieces together from the page and comments
made by the owner, LZ. Then me and owl made a very rewarding last trip to the Nancy.

If you are into geo-puzzles, give this one a look.
