Ironic, isn't it, that the letterbox for Paul has turned out to be
the hardest? And not just for you, Michael. Most folks dismissed
McCartney as the cute one, without the stunning musicality of Lennon
or the mysticism of Harrison, and lacking the randy bluecollar appeal
of Starr. Yet he lives in estate on the Scottish coast, a member of
the Forbes Richest, successful in marriage and parenthood and in
supporting his partner's heroic fight against cancer, and was
knighted by the Queen. It turns out that there are several geo-
markers in the area although only one is indicated on the trail map,
which makes finding Sir Paul a challenge. We had changed the clues a
bit, but a lovely letterboxer a half generation older than I
convinced us to leave them as-is. Paul, it turns out, was never dead
despite all the bizarre historical evidence to the contrary. The box
fits the story...Jay in CT

I found both the Castle Rock and Geo marker boxes last week. Have to go back
for Split Rock and The Gap boxes since I didn't go far enough on the trail (I
didn't have a map: the library where I printed off the clues from didn't have
Adobe Acrobat).
