  1. So, we know the Treasure Master is a man, Dave......re, the comment from Mary, the diner waitress....heh, heh. Are you keeping yourself incognito for future geocache adventures, Geo? And, hey, did anyone look for the cache, yet? Dave? Anyone? Don't have the funds to travel to the West Coast myself. :P

     

    Matt,

     

    2 Y's U R, 2Y's U B, I C U R 2 Y's 4 Me!

     

    It is up to Pat and Becky if we do any more treasure hunts.

  2. I'm going to go out and guess it's Jennifer Bremer. Is it? Pat and Jennifer, did you guys take a road trip to the West Coast or are there other geocachers in the group? That would make good sense, exploring roads, burying things in parks and fields along the way...... :P

     

    The night was dark and the moon was yellow. Treasure Master and his faithful dog Geomutt were cruising the land in the Geocar, planting treasures along the two lane roads of America, maybe near you!

     

    A screech of tires, flames spewing from the exhaust, and a hardy “Hi Ho Geocar!” The masked man of the two lanes was off to another site. Mary, the diner waitress was heard to say “He is my hero. He tips 20%.” But we will never know his true identity. He must ride the roads unknown.”

     

    And on the wind came this sweet refrain “You can’t rip the mask off the old Lone Ranger, and you can't mess around with Treasure Master!” B)

  3. WE HAVE A WINNER!!!

     

    Member Chris Rowland has correctly identified the location of the American Road Geocache and Treasure Hunt hidden treasure! It is hidden in the Beacon Rock State Park on the Columbia River in Washington State. He will receive the grand prize!

     

    Members mattinwilmington and Dave Reese were closing in quickly on the site and were just miles away when Chris nosed them out, so they will receive honorary mention prizes as well.

     

    We will be in touch with the winners, and thanks to everyone who played!

    First, a big welcome! We need more members that bring gifts!

     

    I do have one question…..How will we know when a round has ended and I can ask a new question?

     

    Keep the Show on the Road!

     

    Dave

     

    Dave,

     

    Thanks for the welcome, but the prizes are from American Road, not me!
