This cache is based on my favorite book Jane Eyre by Charlotte
Bronte.You do not need to know the story by heart as I do, but you
will need to have some familiarity with it. If not, get a copy of
the book or you can watch the BBC film version with Zelah Clarke
and Timothy Dalton---yes, the future James Bond---which is the most
faithful adaptation of the novel.
Giriando has agreed to read the book out loud to me in exchange
for my participation in his geocaching expeditions. He is certain
that this cache will not get a lot of attention. Help me prove him
wrong.
