Another head start

From: jceg5540 (greendoc@sonic.net) | Date: 2004-07-23 15:25:36 UTC
I was just back on the East Coast visiting family and had printed out
several dozen LB hunts that sounded intriguing near places we would be
staying (Morris COunty, NJ, Bucks County. PA, Cape May, Baltimore). I
was only able to go on 5 hunts due to lack of time (Quite frustrating
to know they are out there but you can't get away to go looking!)

I was 1 for 5! Quite dispiriting. There had been alot of rain and
flooding so some boxes were quite literally swept away and on one
urban hunt a homeless person was sleeping precisely were the box
should of been. And I am now much better at id-ing poison ivy...
fortunately did not break out in itching.

I am happy to back here and realize how lucky we are to have 6 month
sof dry weather a year for LBing!




This box will be placed on 7/31/04 for the NCal LB gathering at Golden
Gate Park. What follows are clues that will get you to the starting
point for this hunt. The final precise directions will be given at the
gathering. See you there!



"Alice! a childish story take,
And with a gentle hand
Lay it where Childhood's dreams are twined
In Memory's mystic band,
Like pilgrim's withered wreath of flowers
Plucked in a far-off land."
