Geocache Description:

Cache is located not too far from the entrance to the California Shakespeare Theater in Orinda.
You are looking for a small spice jar.

I sometimes wonder if William Shakespeare was a geocacher (or perhaps a letterboxer).
Take these quotes for example:

  • "Safe may'st thou wander, safe return again !" Cymbeline: Act III, Scene 5
  • "The elements be kind to thee, and make thy spirits all of comfort: fare thee well!" Antony and Cleopatra: Act III, Scene 2
  • "Have patience, and endure" Much Ado about Nothing: Act 4, Scene 1

Seems proof enough to me!
Come on out, find this cache, maybe even catch a show!

A bonus: If you find the cache, you will also find hints to my puzzle cache, The Play’s the Thing (GC16K7V)
