Official notice. As always, there are no clues on my property. There have never been any, nor will there ever be any. This is stated in all sincerity and in no way constitutes a hint of any kind. Seriously, kids, trespassers will be persecuted.

If one of the clues is 'have someone yell at you to get off their lawn', now we all know where to go.....

There ain’t going to be a warning shout, son. The cat’s already out, and I’ve seen that cat maul a dobermann twice his size.

u/LonelyDesertCactus Sam Charles, Private Eye and Bird Enthusiast 4d ago

Hmmmm. Most cats are well less than half the size of a Doberman. So what I'm hearing is that you may also have a mountain lion or bobcat, should we need to see one of those for the scavenger hunt.

It’s just a standard domestic shorthair. Ignore the tufted ears, the radio collar, and the fact that we don't have mice anymore—we have missing deer.

Everyone participating can stop by and get a discounted sourdough bagel (blueberry or Asiago) with code word scavenger!

Not Patricia or family, though. I remember what you did in Utah.

How much of a discount?

u/forest-flower Ginger | sourdough baker | Patricia’s arch nemesis 4d ago

I’ll go 34 percent because that’s the number of ducks I saw at the park this morning ❤️🦆🥖

u/7781Michael Kindness Ambassador 4d ago

Sweet. That is a nice discount. It’s very kind of you.

It's also the age of your favorite Musician! 😊 You really should let me play you the song I made about your sourdough some day.

Jerry you need to stop arsing around with your music and get a real job.

2

u/T48m0w Jerry - 34 - Amateur Musician/Unemployed 3d ago

You've never understood my art, Bob. I can assure you I'll be famous someday.

2

u/7781Michael Kindness Ambassador 3d ago

I thought you were famous.

u/Kind-Blackberry-3966 Bob 'Robert' Bobbinson | Owner of Bob's Bargains 3d ago

Only pretends to be, strutting around with his clarinet. I think it's a clarinet? I don't pay enough attention.

2

u/7781Michael Kindness Ambassador 3d ago

Well it ain’t a bassoon

u/Kind-Blackberry-3966 Bob 'Robert' Bobbinson | Owner of Bob's Bargains 3d ago

Maybe I'd understand it more if you didn't keep me awake by practicing all night, Jerry.

1

u/T48m0w Jerry - 34 - Amateur Musician/Unemployed 2d ago

I'm sorry Bob, but since I don't have a job I prefer to sleep all day, so the only time I have left to practice is at night. And bagpipes don't have a volume control.

2

u/Kind-Blackberry-3966 Bob 'Robert' Bobbinson | Owner of Bob's Bargains 2d ago

You contribute nothing to society Jerry.

2

u/T48m0w Jerry - 34 - Amateur Musician/Unemployed 2d ago

I do, though! I fill the world with beautiful music, Bob. Isn't that worth something?

If I win, but I already have tickets for the Farris wheel...can I get cash instead?

u/propschick05 Sandy Deetz (55) Owner of The Yarn Barn. City Council Member. 4d ago

No, but you can go on another ride!

u/LonelyDesertCactus Sam Charles, Private Eye and Bird Enthusiast 5d ago

Can we do the scavenger hunt as a team, ie, with another person, or it every person for themselves?

4

u/propschick05 Sandy Deetz (55) Owner of The Yarn Barn. City Council Member. 4d ago

Sam- teams are encouraged!

I'm in! Are there any restrictions on bringing a hundred-year-old tortoise? He's remarkably good at finding things, although speed may be an issue.
