Barefootguy's Hunt for the Golden Egg

Submitted by Clue Master on
Clue 1: 
Hey treasure hunter, don't be a punter! 
Stay in the eye of the pig 
Search high, search low, but make sure as you go 
Destroy nothing while you dig 

The puck has been concealed, so here's the deal: 
The treasure is not all that I've hid 
Three eggs of blue shall give you a clue- 
Old hiding places do bid 

Clue 2: 
You could have a lot of fun 
Noodling clues and channeling bards. 
Have a seat and something to eat, 
Riches for you could be in the cards 

Clue 3: 
Con artist I am not 
Nor will I guide you to the spot 
Ma always said to bring plenty of kiwi, 
Cloud 9 awaits at a former Mounds spot. 

Clue 4: 
Have yourself a splashingly good time 
Find a place for the kiddies to play. 
As you look around in the park you have found 
Where a city ends is where you should stay 

Clue #5 
Numbers, numbers. Numbers galore! 
Sit on 16, 18 by 24 
12 and 13 can help you a ton; 
But 13 is helpful in more ways than one 

Clue 5 1/2: 
Across from Obbs is the place to be, 
Go to the bluff top where the path makes a "T" 
Down the left path between 70 and 100 paces, 
Look to your left and you're off to the races. 

Clue 6: 
Go you and forage, don't get discouraged 
As you hunt and search and comb 
Get your melon to a former HF dwellin' 
Take your big car to a former national home 

Clue 7: 
Go to the brink, don't stop and think, 
As your quest begins to wane. 
Walk, don't run, as you're having all this fun, 
Take a jaunt down lucky lane 

Clue 8: 
As this hunt nears its final bout, you might be getting worn out. 
I'd help you if I could 
If you don't want to miss, just remember this: 
An ocean wouldn't help you, but a... 

Clue 9: 
As you grow hunt-weary, stand up proud! don't beg 
The final clue awaits you, hidden in an egg 
Get downtown now, I know this won't bring me many cheers; 
The clue can be thine if you look inside a historical sign 
In the eastern corner of the park known as Mear

Kiwis are about the same size as chickens, but their eggs are almost as big as those of ostriches!

Finding all these eggs reminds me of Frozen Buttox's Harriet Island hunt where everyone was finding dog biscuits. :smile:

This is just too funny with all these eggs being found :sillygrin: In case anyone was wondering, none of mine have been found yet. I thought for sure at least one would have been found by now.

Also, I would like to reiterate, as is stated in the rules, that I did not use a gps in hiding the eggs or treasure.

I won't be around at 6 tonight to post the clue since I'll be at Ian's thing, I'm trying to decide if I should post it early or late.

I vote early.

I'll be going to Ian's thing right from school, so I'll probably post the clue at around 5:20. I'll bring copies of it with me too for those of you that are going to Ian's bowling party.
