Geocache Description:

NOTE: The listed coordinates are NOT the position of the cache. You must solve the puzzle below to determine the actual coordinates of the cache.

I've always had a keen interest in science fiction and fantasy. When Star Wars was first released to theaters in 1977, I was nine years old -- the perfect age for something like that. I remember the first time I went to see Star Wars with my Dad; the showing we wanted was sold out, and we waited for hours in a line that stretched all the way around the block at the old Vine Theater in Livermore. I saw that movie at least a dozen times over the next couple years, partly because the most popular birthday party activity among my friends was taking the party crew to go see Star Wars again.

Star Wars also introduced me to collectible trading cards. Basically, if I wasn't going to go see Star Wars again that weekend, I'd probably end up riding my bike down to the comic book shop and blowing my allowance for the week on Star Wars cards. The cards were supposedly randomly distributed, but it was still difficult to get a complete set. Inevitably, I ended up trying to trade my spares for cards that I needed at school. I'm sure the teachers loved that. Anyway, I recently came across an old shoebox containing a few favorites, and they gave me an idea for a cache:






















Once you have the coordinates, the cache shouldn't be too difficult to find, although the container is slightly camouflaged. Please do not try to remove the camouflage from the cache container. Enjoy!
