We checked out Highland and Linwood. Not too many looking there. Some person came by with a loudspeaker announcing it had been found.

I like the theory of Harriet Island. However, the clues this year are kind of vague... Right now there are too many possibilities...

A theory on BC is that the medallion was found there in 95=4 years ago, thus the 9,5,4 clue. Also, one of this years clues is very similar to a clue from 95."no

golfing" signs behind backstops, the big sliding hill, Longfellow St., BC elementary- need I say more?
