the bird clue seems to point to either a dove icecream bar box or else a box from a bar of dove soap. to me it is too obvious though. maybe not if tomorrow they start pointing us towards the right park instead of the location w/in the park.

Hi. I've been unable to get on for a couple of days, but I'm really curious as to what the last two clues are pointing to. Can someone give me an index to a wrap-up discussion?

See ya out there tonight...

Question,and this may help others that have mistakenly posted twice:

How do you refresh after you post a message so you don't have to hit the Previous message, and so you don't get that question asking if you want to repost? Thanks. After each time I post, I hit Previous then More. Is there an easier way?
