Geocache Description:

A tribute to some caches of interest to me for one reason or another. Whether hard to find or just waiting till the coast was clear. No final cache, as this will be ongoing as I find more interesting finds. Original listings will be posted along with the original hints and more if needed in case the cache has to be be modified. Credit will be given to the original CO.

The original CO for this tribute cache is drives and the original listing is GC1VM27. Only wish I could have found a marker with a similar name near the cache. Original is listed below.

Four Hundredth in the Famous People (FP) Series - Viola

Viola is a fictional character from the play Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare written ~1600. The title Twelfth Night, prepares the audience for its jovial feel of festivities consisting of drink, dance, and giving in to general self-indulgence (I know it worked that way with me).

She is a young woman of Messaline who is shipwrecked on the shores of Illyria at the beginning of the play.

When Viola finds herself separated from her brother, and in unfamiliar territory she secures the assistance of the ship’s Captain, who really has an over indulging attraction to crepe myrtle trees, in disguising her true nature. The Captain agrees to keep silent about her disguise as a male and aids in her deception.

While disguised as a boy Viola goes by the name Cesario. When disguised, kind of like this small plastic tube, she seeks employment in the house of Duke Orsino, an older love sick man who covets the Lady Olivia.

She serves the Duke by carrying messages, like a tightly rolled log with a string glued to it, to the woman he is infatuated with, Lady Olivia. This places Viola in a conflicted situation, she is forced by duty to do her best to plead Orsino’s case to Olivia, however she encounters a conflict as she herself falls in love with Orsino – and Olivia falls in love with her!

Viola, perplexed by the problems this presents her with, both moral and ethical, decides to let fate unravel these problems for her.

This tribute cache is located in Fairview Cemetary so it is off limits dusk till dawn. Please be respectful as allways. This is log only so bring a pen and some tweezers for log retrieval.
Congratulations to Thekengrene on the persistance in getting this very difficult FTF!
