VA-Backwards Bob is back in business

Okay folk, He's back and hidden in a MUCH better spot now.

If you aren't used to alot of walking this one may wear you out. It wore me
out when I planted it. Bring plenty of water in case you get thirsty and I
guarantee you will. You will also need a compass. Bearings are Magnetic.

Backwards Bob wanted to fly a kite, so he went to the most popular place in
Virginia Beach to do so.

He parked right in front of a lighthouse and walked up a flight of steps.
"Whew, I havent done that in a while, I need to sit down." He found a stone
bench and sat a while to catch his breath. The bench was in front of a large
tree, planted by a woman's society. As he looked at the tree, he heard the
sounds of laughter and playing to his left. He looked a saw children playing
in a wooden cove.

"That looks interesting"

He got up and walked down the mountain, heading for this cove that isnt a
true cove. He wandered around this fun place and noticed another playground
a distance away that didn't seem as popular. "How sad."

He decided to swing on the neglected swings a bit and slide down the slides.
As he stood at the top of the slides he heard another odd sound. He slid
down and went to investigate this new sound. He came upon a tree that has
these strange bugs on it. They were Cicadas and they were breaking out of
their Pupa stage. He watched them for a long time and was a bit startled by
a lizard running over his shoe. He decided to follow this lizard and chased
it under a large flat rock. He looked under the rock and instead of a
lizard guess what he found?

Directions.

Follow Bob's path untill you get to the slides. Climb to the top of the
slides and stand between the two, then look due north, Over the top of the
furthest tree of three you will see a tall pine tree. Go to that tree and
marvel at all of the little cicada husks you find there. Then turn left and
walk about 18-20 steps where you will find a large flat rock. Underneath is
the surprise! If you have a hard time finding it and wish for a hint, email
me!
