The cache is not at the posted coordinates!!! 7/23/2012 Update: Solve the puzzle and head east 30 feet.
In 1516, Sir Thomas More completed On the Best State of a Republic and on the New Island of Utopia, or more commonly, Utopia. The word "utopia" has become synonymous for an ideal community or society. "Utopia" is sometimes used pejoratively, in reference to an unrealistic ideal that is impossible to achieve. When I hid this cache, it was 
a beautiful star-filled night , and I was awestruck by the beauty of the view. I think that in other moments, I might find this view less than ideal. So the double meaning of "utopia" seems appropriate.
Includes material from www.wikipedia.org.
Now, onto the puzzle! This hide didn't seem complete without reference to some other caches, so I incorporated my finds at Nearby "California's Treasures" and Way-far "The LIFT, the LAYOUT, and the LAWN." They add nicely to the posted coordinates for this hide. The cache is a waterproof matchbox I received as a FTF prize from a very cool puzzle cache from twostarfam.
You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
Congratulations to Jasc the Brat/Schooltch4daz for the first to find!!! Very fast work!
