Steven Starry has been busy. Steve I like
the Cana Island Lighthouse Clue (we can't
even call them "Clues"), but short and sweet:
"From the nautical parking brake look toward
the setting sun."

But then I like complex clues too, like Becky
Hilt's Sewanee Tenessee Letterbox clues. This
is just part of them:

"Then head for the Chapel arches and RTDs for
RBD, EMJ and WHJ. Traverse avenues University
and Tennessee to and along the new parallel
trail. On Memorial Cross are eight dates to
record. Hike SPT towards Bridal Veil 5,200
plus feet and up 49 steps to the Stephen and
Emily bench and RTD. Head 146 degrees 40 paces
to the black way. Take the paved way 50 degrees
to Carolina at Florida. Follow the creek gravel
way along Carolina to Carolina to the William
and Mary bridge and continue to e trek 289 paces
past Tom. Head 10 degrees 29 paces to the CH
arch. On line 135 degrees walk 18 paces to
join four on the creek pebble way. Se-up a
heading of 20 degrees and trek 132 paces to a
veteran cedar amputee. Back track 8 paces and
head 110 degrees on line with two lights 208
paces to a white face. Ahead 8 paces to lip
hair and up 25 steps towards GCB to a small
window. Through it opened look 98 degrees to
the magnificent locust on the lawn. From there
266 degrees 117 paces to fhahaooc. Head 192
degrees 132 paces to the steps. The letterbox
is to the right."

I like the variety we get. You all do a wonderful
job. You're fun people!
