I think we need to get the town pinpointed guys. Otherwise, we can't start
narrowing it down with much accuracy. Cemetaries definitely needed to be
ruled in or out, but now we need to know the town. If we know which town
it's in, we can look at names of preserves, parks, etc. Which ones have
marked/named trials, which ones simply have trials. The more limiting
knowledge we have, the better the remaining questions can be formulated, and
really, there are only 2 left, as we still need one to pinpoint the town.
I would urge you all to only submit one of two questions for #18, narrow it
to either Shirley or Sherborn.

I would agree. I was so disappointed not to learn which town it's
in today!
Another thought I had was (after we learn which town it's in) we ask
something like "is it located in the northern half of the town",
just to keep cutting down on the area we need to search. I don't
think we're going to have enough questions to get down to specific
trails, etc. so this way we just cut down the area each time.
Any thoughts?

If it is in Sherborn here is a town map:
http://members.aol.com/sherbornma/SherbornMap.htm
There is a RailRoad runing right through it (as opposed to the one in
the corner.) Maybe East or West of the ____RailRoad?
Or West or East of Route 16 (street names change).
This mapquest shows Shirely MA shaded.
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?country=US&address=&city=Shirley&st\
ate=MA&zoom=7
Looks like Benjamin Rd/Phoenix St/ Shaker Rd bisect it N & S. So West
or East of this road sequence?
And I don't see any Green Park Areas in Sherborn, but Shirley has
Fredonian Nature Center.

ABout 11 miles of the Bay Circuit trail runs through Sherborn, so that is another option.
