Bay Area/San Jose Box Updates - Pt II

From: Pete (jiggs111@earthlink.net) | Date: 2004-06-23 07:43:09 UTC
Hi again...

Here's what the Jiggs clan was up to on Saturday...

Alum Rock Park - San Jose - Wow! My kids loved this park! Who'd a
thunk, with the sulphur smells and brackish water and... Great
stamp, with lots of visitors...area's begging for a second stanp!!!

Alameda Creek Trail - Fremont - we took Lizardbutt's advise and
shunned the cities in favour of this graet 4 mile stroll along the
east bay! The boxes were all there, with some really great clues to
go with them! A word to the wise..read ALL of the clue..it'll save
you backtracking three or 4 times, like it did us! Definitely a
great, kid-friendly (the kids took their scooters!) series.

Sushi House - Alameda - a trip to this area wouldn't be complete
without picking up at least one of Princess Lea's LBs! This one is
in a neat spot on the waterfront! We were first finders too (of the
second book). Of note, the Sushi House restaurant is moving..but it
really wont affect the clues that much, as it'll be that much closer
to the hiding spot!

Again, if anyone knows who was in the process of planting the HOUSE
of TREES box in Berkelry, plmk, as I have the box here.
