Geocache Description:

PLEASE do not confuse this cache with a nearby letterbox. If you find a decon container you have found the letterbox and need to keep searching for the geocache!

This is one in a series of easy "song" caches inviting you to hum a happy tune as you enjoy the beauty of summer

"You'll be swell! You'll be great!
Gonna have the whole world on the plate!
Starting here, starting now,
Honey, everything's coming up roses!"

For years, the State College Community Theatre produced plays at the Boal Barn Playhouse down the road from this cache. The Theatre moved to a different venue in 2013.

THIS CACHE SHOULD BE DONE IN DAYLIGHT so as to not disturb neighbors in the area. Posts to some other caches in this same vicinity note that several night-time cachers have had encounters with local police. PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS CACHE AT NIGHT.

You do not need to drive down the entrance road to get this cache. The cache is a hand-size container but it is NOT a decon container nor is it placed IN the rock wall. Please be careful in opening it—the back swivels/slides. It does not "pop" open. Please bring your own pen. There is no need to disturb a stone wall or plantings to find this cache. If you don't cut corners or try to fake it, your solid talent will always rise to the top like a rock star!
In keeping with the summer "livin' is easy" series, the hint below is a further giveaway.

'Everything’s Coming Up Roses' is a song from the 1959 Broadway musical Gypsy: A Musical Fable, with lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and music by Jule Styne. It was most famously sung by Ethel Merman
