Geocache Description:


Sagelily and I were treated to lunch the other day by a couple of business associates at their favourite Italian restaurant.  The picture below riveted my attention.  Wow!  Such colour! Such geometry!  Such passion!  The food was pretty good, too.

picture

In my rapt reverie, four numbers leapt to mind and soul.

Let your mind and soul soar and speak to you as you study this delight-filled picture.  Let their voices conjure for you too these four numbers. 

For one number, think aspirational architecture.

For another, despair at idle wealth.

For yet another, ponder man’s mimicries of nature to attract others.

For the fourth, admire the means for mortal sustenance.

Upon returning to Planet Earth, place these four ethereal numbers in numerical order, and subtract from this number zykkvv to get the last four digits of the cache’s N coordinates and subtract zqpkp to get its W coordinates.
