Midwest: New Mystery box/ volunteer needed

From: bcostley (bobbyeubanks@yahoo.com) | Date: 2003-01-23 05:04:36 UTC
On January 16, 2003 Brett hid the Wedding Mystery box somewhere in
the midwest. Clues may be found here:

http://home.agalis.net/bcostley/Letterbox/wedding.htm

Due to the weather (below 0F with wind chill) I hid this very
quickly. Due to snow, I'm not sure the clues are correct (trails
were hard to follow) or if you may need to trample sensitive land to
get to the box. It should be pretty easy to find, once you've
figured out the right park it is in. I can give more straightforward
clues to the first person who tells me the city it's in and
volunteers to verify accuracy and acceptability of location.


Thanks!

I am in the mid west but don't recognize the location ...... guess you had to have been there.

I'm the Webmaster for the Midwest states (except Nebraska) and have no
clue about this -- I even looked at my map. Because this box could be
associated with any of several states, the link to the clues page should
go on the main Mystery Box Web page.

the midwest is a pretty big place
can you narrow this down?

I guess the freeze has gotten to me, but that URL doesn't help me at
all!

It's freezing here in Chicago, too, but I don't have any doubts about
the state, and think I'd know what to do to narrow it down from
there. Not going there any time soon, however......

Ditto here... snowing like crazy and freezing. I can tell you the
state, the metro area and the city... would need to do some
searching from there... but it's nowhere near here and I'm not
headed that way anytime soon.

well I'm dumb as a rock and don't have a clue
but I bet it isn't around here
where it has finally climbed above 0 all the way up to 2 with a wind chill in the -20's range
