{Now scheduled for Friday, June 28th at 0505 Fenn Time}
For those of you not familiar with the Chase, Forrest Fenn has been giving out one new clue a month on the Today Show. It was scheduled for June 17th but got postponed. Not for the first time. Last month they made him get up at 3 something in the morning two days in a row. “Truck trouble,” they claimed. (Although I suspect the crew was out searching for the treasure on the extra day.) It’s now scheduled for June 27th (Not the 28th)according to Stephanie (What’s A Blaze) at Chasechat.
So far the clues have been:
- helpful. Like don’t dig up old outhouses (people apparently thought that’s what “putting in below the home of Brown” meant. Not what came to my mind.
- common sense. Like, don’t dig up a cemetery. Again, not something that crossed my mind.
- vague/general. Like, it’s above 5000 feet. Not a surprise since he said it was in the Rocky Mountains.
Actually, I don’t mind the generality of the extra hints. I don’t want to hear that it’s been found already. I still plan to head West as soon as we get the chance. I say we. I’m waiting on my husband to clear his schedule. He’s mildly amused by my new hobby. Also, I haven’t exactly figured out the poem yet….
Forrest Fenn says all one needs is the poem, which is in the book.
Meanwhile, enjoy the Thrill of the Chase as you search/seek/solve/obsess …..
