The show has retired from MD but continues by traveling.  Look for "the greatest show in ink" at upcoming gathers around the country.  P.T.B.


----------


Night Owl and Tempus Fugit have graciously taken the time to plant three boxes that were originally hidden in plain sight at the pavillion during the gather. Please enjoy their encore performance. Performances will continue until May 31st.



Directions

Park at the Contact Station on Lake Ridge Drive (the guard station on the road entering the park).


Clue

Walk back towards the park entrance to the entrance to Cabin Branch Trail (CBT) on left. From the sign that says, "Take nothing but pictures, leave only footprints," go 55 paces (not 24) to a V tree on the left side of the trail. Walk another 7 paces to a 2nd V tree on the left side of the trail. From there look to the right hand side of the trail, at 82 degrees, to see a Y tree. Take 16 paces to the Y tree. From the Y tree take 9 paces at 80 degrees to a log with a Y branch collapsed over the top. Near the point where the Y branch was once connected, you will find Angoscioso la Grandioso (by Marco Peperini) covered with rocks.

Return to the trail and continue towards CBT. When you get to the intersection of the CBT, of your choice between straight or left, go straight. Continue until you find a stump that is touching the trail. You've seen this stump before in Series #3. Pass the stump and go 27 paces to a whitish green blaze on the right. Take 12 paces at 80 degrees to a large green giant with a green necklace at the base. Take 27 paces to another tree with 2 white patches around the trunk. Look left. At 8 steps, at 65 degrees, by a medium tree, find the Amazing Feats (by Talking Turtle) under rocks and branches.

Go back to the trail. Go right and continue along the path. When you come to a spring that crosses the path turn around and go 14 paces back. Between 2 stumps on the left hand side go 17 paces to the rooted end of a log. From there go south up hill 18 paces to a 12 foot hollow log. At the slender, western end of this oversize fishing pole, you will find The Amazing Fish Girl (by CactusLicker).

Return the way you came to the Contact Station and you car.
