Night+Hunt

It was a dark misty night. We had no idea where we were going to end up or what we would find, but we knew that we had to press on. We were tired, but we were also excited. We were going on an adventure. We opened up the iPhone application that pointed us in our direction. We were trying to find "Arrrgh you listening?" We thought we would encounter some pirates, and in our minds we thought about how awful walking the plank would be. However, much to our surprise the compass took us right to the subway parking lot. The clue warned to be carful around the rocks. We had to maneuver through the trees into an easement ditch of sorts. The trees shaded most of the light from shining down into the tiny hole. it was literally a shot in the dark. We must have picked up every single rock in the hole. John Henry could not have cleared the tunnel faster than we went through all those rocks. Finally we had found our first prize. We rushed excitedly to to the car so that we could go through the box in some light. Inside we found a fishing lure, a scouts card, and some other trinkets. we signed to book and packed up the box to hide it for its next finder.



Still feeling the excitement from our first find we decided to walk to the next cache. It was a little farther than we had anticipated as we walked all the way from the subway in Lillington to the Food Lion parking lot. We had to go through a gas station parking lot and a busy road before we were close to the cache, not to mention the dirty looks given to three young men walking around at night in dimly lit parking lots. We could feel eyes watching us as we walked to our next cache. We looked at the hint on the iPhone and found it hidden under one part of a street light. Inside there was a pokemon toy, a pad to sign, and also a few other things. We signed the book and now cold and tired walked briskly back to the car.



The third and final cache was a bit further away It talked about people knowing what time it was. We knew that it had to be near a clock. The compass took un into the heart of downtown Lillington at the clock across from Nonna's Italian Restaurant. The smells were delicious!! We read the hint which told us that the cache was hidden in the far left corner of the clock's encasement. We rushed over, brushed away the rocks, and found the cache. There were some interesting things inside. There was an army man, a film canister with the pad, and some kind of wet something that appeared to be Barbie clothes or something (no one wanted to touch those). We had found all three caches. We had finished the most important part of our project and we rushed back to our apartment to ecstatically begin working on our wiki page. We knew that we needed to start working as soon as possible to do our best and get an A+!!! It was an awesome project!!!
