Okay, so I am cutting and pasting my clue from Word into the Yahoo
e-mail and what comes out is a bunch of weirdness. Cat keeps telling
me that is is HTML but all I hear is blah, blah, blah, jargon,
jargon. Does anyone else cut and paste their clues into the e-mail
and if so are you getting weirdo stuff too? (c'mon, lie to me and
make me feel better)
I never claimed to be a computer expert...I am just a lunatic who
likes to run around in the woods. (and apparently spout off Monty
Python references that few people understand) Where are all of the
Python fans? Who will join me in doing silly walks through the woods?

After locating Mary Jane Rathburn's Find in Firefly's Maryland, My
Maryland series, take a right onto the purple and white blazed
trail. As you take this right onto the trail, start counting the
blazes and count the blaze at your turn as number one. At the fourth
blaze, take a bearing of 355 and eyeball the cave with the curved
tree at its entrance. Proceed across the field and up the hill to
the entrance of the cave of Caerbannog. (thank you Tempusfugitmd for
the name and correct spelling) Be very quiet while retrieving this
box as beyond the cave lives a foul creature, a great huge monster
with big nasty teeth. Don't be fooled by the white fluffy tail, this
vile creature will bite your kneecaps off. While peering into the
opening, quaking with fear, make the rational decision and stay out
of the cave. Instead, look to the left and find the flat rock
leaning up against another large rock. The box is underneath the
flat rock beneath the international letterboxing symbol of neatly
arranged rocks and sticks. Quickly pantomime remounting your horse
but do not begin banging your coconuts together until you are out of
earshot of the killer bunny. Then take a moment to debate the load
bearing capacity of swallows.

I may be new to letterboxing, but I think Monty Python
can be fun. However, reading your clues here, all I
can think to say/type is: "Run away, run away!" It
has been awhile, so I don't know if I even have the
correct MP movie reference. Regardless, this one made
me smile.

We have a question about the last direction - "Then take a moment to
debate the load bearing capacity of swallows." I assume we are
to discuss the relative merits of the European swallow and the African
swallow - correct? We don't want to err in following the directions.
