Alternate Image 1 Verse 7 Solution

Here is my solution for this verse... it's a little different from the things posted here but it does seem to lead to an easy to access and non invasive dig spot. I used Google Maps to help me maneuver through the park and try to decipher the riddle.

"At stone wall's door

the Air Smells sweet." 

THIS BEGINS THE SEARCH IN SHAKESPEARE'S GARDEN ACROSS FROM THE SWEET SMELLING STRAWBERRY HILL....WALK UP TO THE STONE/BRICK "DOOR" WHERE SHAKESPEARE IS AND LOOK UP AND TO THE LEFT.  WALK CLOSER TO THE FENCE ON YOUR LEFT.

"Not far away

High posts are three"

"Education and Justice

For all to see"

AT THE FENCE...TO SEE THIS YOU WILL HAVE TO MOVE CLOSER TO THE FENCE LINE AND YOU SHOULD SEE THREE HUGE TREES IN A ROW IN FRONT(back?) OF THE MUSEUM FROM SHAKESPEARE'S GARDEN. LEAVE THE GARDEN AND MAKE YOUR WAY OVER TO THEM.  You might have to walk out of the garden and around the museum to get to the them.

YOU WILL FIND...3 VERY TALL TREES OR "POSTS" AND ....1 SECURITY GUARD SHACK. "JUSTICE" 

SECURITY SHACK "JUSTICE" ON LOWER LEFT... 3 "POSTS" TREES AT CENTER

"Sounds from the sky

Near ace is high

Running north, but first across" 

SOUNDS FROM THE SKY: THIS COULD BE A COUPLE OF THINGS. 1. MUSIC FROM THE CONCOURSE THAT DRAWS THE PERSON TOWARD IT. WHICH...IS NORTH OF THE PREVIOUS CLUE "POSTS" AND ACROSS THE STREET. 2. IT COULD ALSO BE A REFERENCE TO THE FLAG BANGING ON THE FLAGPOLE ABOVE YOUR HEAD.

NEAR ACE IS HIGH.. THE SOUNDS OF THE MUSIC CONCOURSE WOULD BE NEAR THE FLAGPOLES WHERE THE CALIFORNIA FLAG WOULD BE DISPLAYED. ON THE FLAG THERE IS A STAR AND A BEAR. "ACE" IS ANOTHER WORD (SYNONYM) FOR STAR. 

YOU SHOULD NOW BE IN FRONT OF THE MUSIC CONCOURSE IN BETWEEN THE FLAGS FACING THE "SHELL"

"In jewel's direction

Is an object

Of Twain's attention"

MARK TWAIN LOVED SAN FRANCISCO. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT HE LOVED THE MOST DURING HIS TIME THERE WAS EATING OYSTERS ON THE HALF SHELL AT THE OCCIDENTAL HOTEL BEFORE IT BURNED DOWN. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/the-decades-long-comeback-of-mark-twains-favorite-food-88119462/  

THE OBJECT OF TWAINS AFFECTION IS THE MUSIC CONCOURSE SHELL! THE HALF SHELL.

Giant pole 

Giant step

To the place 

The casque is kept. 

FROM THE CONCOURSE I BEGAN TO LOOK AROUND AND THINK ABOUT THE GIANT POLE..

I WAS FIRST DRAWN TO THE FLAG POLES BUT REALIZED THAT THE VERSE REFERENCES 1 POLE NOT 2. 

SO...I STARTED TO LOOK AROUND HERE FOR "A" POLE. 

I CAME UP WITH BEETHOVEN. 

WHO WAS POLISH. HE'S A POLE.

BEHIND HIM..THERE IS A GIANT STEP OF CONCRETE...WHERE I THINK THAT THE CASQUE CAN BE FOUND. :) CAN SOMEONE GO CHECK FOR THIS TEXAS GAL? 

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: 

THE ORBS IN THE DRAWING REFLECT THE TOP OF THIS BUILDING... I THINK THIS BUILDING IS THE KEY TO ORIENT YOURSELF TO THE HUNT.

• THE PLANETARIUM IS THE TOP OF THE PAINTING WHERE THE BLUE ORBS ARE

• THE WOMAN'S ARMS THAT ARE CROSSED AND HER FINGER POINTS TOWARDS WHERE YOU CAN BEGIN THE SEARCH.(SHAKESPEARE'S GARDEN)

JUST A THOUGHT.
