Top 10 (Maine)

As this is the state of unmentionables...
I'll omit recent locals in favor of nostalgic spots.

10. ME - "Almost There"
9. Opus #91
8. Opus #31
7. ME - "Wangor"
6. ME - "MHO" to be placed soon...
5. ME - "Baxter Woods Series"
4. ME - "Saco Heath boxes"
3. ME - "Cow Patty" aka: cowhenge
2. CT - Sunny Brook State Park (??Rubaduc) this was my first find in winter
1. ME -"Bird Walk" my favorite walking spot and ocean viewing

And on my list of interesting stories is a box from the rose park "Elizabeth Park"
in Hartford, Ct. Having previously lived in CT I was delighted to return to the
area in search of boxes. Well, it was one of those instances where the clue was
written so beautifully that it brought you around a scenic tour of the entire park
showing me places that I didn't even know (having lived nearby) and ultimately
finding the box just steps from where we initially began - and never even
realizing it until long afterwards. It was after this box that I began to understand
the fine art of writing a clue so that you enjoy the spot to the fullest! Thank you
to whomever planted that box - this story was long overdue!
