Geocache Description:

This is a three stage cache. The first two stages are virtual. The third stage is a medium-sized Rubbermaid container.

The cache title refers to what you will find at the first two stages.

Stage Two is about 2.6 miles by road from Stage One. Stage Three is a short walk from Stage Two.

There used to be a sign at the first location, but it is now gone. After you have arrived at stage one, refer to the picture included in this listing to find your way to stage two.

The second stage is at N 38 33.ABC W 121 43.CDE where

A = The number of times the letter "C" appears in the largest word on the sign
B = The number of letters in the first word under the largest word on the sign - 4
C = The number of letters in the second word under the largest word on the sign -1
D = The number of letters in the third word under the largest word on the sign + 1
E = The number of words in the first line under the largest word on the sign - 1

The third stage is at N 38.33.FGH W 121 43.FGI where

F = The number of times the letter "B" appears in the phone number on the sign at stage two
G = Digit two minus digit three of the phone number on the sign
H = G + 1
I = The third digit of the phone number

As you walk to the third stage, look at the apartment complex on your left for more examples of the Power of the Sun.
