OR: Little People and Fighting Giants

From: rscarpen (RiskyNil@hotmail.com) | Date: 2002-10-30 03:32:40 UTC
Couldn't find the Little People's box, but really--come on, Lily--you
didn't REALLY hide it where the clue says it is, did you? =)
That's got to be the balls-iest place I've ever seen a letterbox
placed, but I'm not too surprised it's missing if that's where it
really was! No little people were around when I tried hunting it
down.

I absolutely *love* the clues for the Burntwood Letterbox! And the
box is alive and well, I'm happy to say.

Cooper Park is also alive and well, though I felt like a peeping
tom while getting the letterbox! Don't worry, though, nobody
seems to have called the cops on me. =)

Farewell!

Yes, Little people REALLY is planted just where the clues indicate. There
is a geocache very much near it so i will go ahead and check on it
tonight... Will let everyone know.

OK,

I went out and checked on Little People, it is alive and well. Because of
the rather gutsy placement on this box you have to actually "dig" for it.

If you need any help Ryan just email me offl ist, the clues are a little
cryptic.


Also, If someone has a brilliant idea on where to put the new Alice in
wonderland box, i would appreciate a little help. I keep going over there
trying to find a safe spot for her and haven't been able to come up with
anything. A different perspective would be nice as i am burnt out on ideas.

Hey Ryan et al

Glad you liked my Burntwood clues. It was my second box ever -- interesting
process: first the stamp (just practicing), then the last minute decision to
throw together a box for a weekly walk, and afterward came the clues. Dang,
I thought, I should have made a different stamp! Then a voice spoke to me,
"Remember, there are no rules." :P In other words, I'm thinking to change
the stamp in that box. I'll let y'all know.

I tried getting the Little People box too. First I dug this way and then I
walked around and dug at it that way and then went under there and dug
backwards. I dug every which way around and still couldn't get to the
treasure. Just couldn't reach! Hah! I put everything back where it
belonged and promised to come back when I grew longer arms. Clever Lillis.

Have you had your walk today?

I usually don't do that, but I'll make an exception in this case. =)

I thought they seemed pretty straight-forward! I'm not sure how
you can help except by saying, "Dig, Ryan! Dig!" =)
