Clue #1
We are starting anew, alack and alas,
Seek out the treasure surrounded by grass
Search the city built on seven hills
Combing the area should cause you no ills
To be first you must start with the last
Putting it all together could be a blast
To decipher the code pay attention to signs
Hacking the order to our deceptive lines
Clue #2
It was bright and shiny when it was brand new
Now only a few years later it has a green hue
And when you are standing at the treasure's home
Even more prominent in the distant is another dome
Clue #3
If you're searching for a place to park
Best opt for the side that's rather dark
To shed a little light on the hiding place
Remember its vintage located on its base
Clue #4
Bank on the fact that it got a new name
A directional dilemma with historic fame
A compass will confuse if traveling by land
Or head North by water to see it firsthand
Clue #5
Here is a tip, so don't blow your stack
Seeing it's top will keep you on track
A landmark in the skyline will be erased
Known is the fact that it will be replaced
Clue #6
If you are searching for a big double you
It's metal members form one out of view
An elevated crest resides between it and thee
Eclipsing the river below by some degree
Clue #7
Right hand green, left hand red, lead to our med
In our game, you win if green and you lose if red
Now quit pretending, it could take you until dawn
Especially if when you get back the city is gone
Clue #8
A pair of firsts win nothing but gold
Ponder a move that would really be bold
Causing no fear with this little twist
Suppose you find a floor that doesn't exist
Clue #9
Maybe by now, you know it's all a numb3rs game
Mastering the letters bring forth a false name
Map Guy has not covered our most coveted ground
A number in thousands to the far East can be found
Clue #10
The honeymoon is over; it's a common phrase
Maybe you'll catch on, one of these days
Smack, it will hit you right in the mouth
Just go to a bus drivers wife in the south

:smile:
it's always important to show up and participate
because not ALL fun things of the night get posted ... lots in my camera make it to the computer but lots get edited due to subject matter and don't make it in the Cooler! :sheepish: :sheepish: :ooh: :ooh: :wink: :wink: :eek: :eek: :cool: :cool: :goofy: :goofy:
gotta be there to ever get the full effect!! :goofy:
I think someone tried to take pictures under the table with my camera but they didn't come out- I think thats blurry gum! doh! and I thought a couple shots were too gross to post! yeah, I do draw the lines on some things - sorry :frown: :sheepish:
Yowza!
and that's MedHunters co-worker
nice guy - forgot name :frown:
it was a nice easy name too -Tristan?

Oh and I don't mind missing out on stuff, I miss out on tons all the time, so that's just part of life. Sometimes I find it's best to miss out on some things though, as long as I don't miss out on the really important things.
(P.S. How'd you do that?) :confused:
the cathedral went from gold to green
should this be distant, or distance?
a dome in the distance = copper dome restaurant?
just a thought...
I'm still liking Cathedral and Capitol
the restaurant is a good idea but there isn't a park anywhere near there... unless you'd like to believe in the como theory and they placed it in Edgcumbe (6 blocks away)
I've got my park picked out and I'm sticking with it... until the next clue ofcourse.
dunno though.
I still like Mounds for whatever reason.
Reminder to everyone hunting:
I know 10 people who got $$s in
all registration $$s have to be to MedHunter by tomorrow to get the higher $$ --- see above.
I was told today he can be paypaled but I don't know how.
