WA: Clowns and Compasses

From: rscarpen (RiskyNil@hotmail.com) | Date: 2002-11-18 18:21:20 UTC
A funny thing happened to me the other day. I headed out to Fort
Steilacoom Park to nab the last of the clowns there, and you'd never
guess what I found at the last one: A compass! Looked suspiciously
like a compass I've seen before, and sure enough, the owner (Amanda
from Seattle!) fessed up to "misplacing" it five days earlier when
she was there. She just thought it was misplaced somewhere in all
her junk! =)

So how do the stats work if you've "found" a compass? =) Does it
count as a hitchhiker since they typically do move from box to box?
(Not that they actually stay there, but they do move around!)

And, speaking of the clown clues, there's a new fense that's been put
up around the cemetary, so you can't stand right at the sign for one
of the boxes where the clue mentions to take a compass direction.
Well, you're not supposed to, at least.

Adios!
