Well these lonely cache challenges on this site should be getting pretty easy these days. My last find a couple weeks prior to this one was lonely for a few weeks short of 6 years. That reminded me of this challenge. Then I easily found an over 5 yearer that I didn't use on level 3.3. Thanks OCNA Challenges! Wait, that was me; I created all these cache pages!

I haven't been on the site for a while until just recently. I retired and moved south last summer. Only a couple of OCNA caches within 100 miles of where I now live. 

Now with this Covid-19 thing happening, I, like most other people, are not caching as much as I'm used to. I was reminded of these locationless caches and decided to revisit them. Lots of research to do here, but I have several that I qualify for.

My requirement for Lonely Cache Level 3.5 is below:

Updated the description to add some clarity and slight modification of what is allowed.

Okay, going to go for this one using 3 of the 3-year lonely caches I found and the 2 four-year lonely caches I found. If  level 4 shows up on the scene, I'll probably delete this to log that one. Wow, keeping all these finds dates and lonely year lengths straight takes a post-graduate degree in informatics (which I don't have, but I'm thinking about putting together something in python to figure this all out for me). For now, its good old paper and brainstrain

Here are my qualifiers:

I used these ones to log Level 3.3 and oen of them to log Level 3
