  • Thanks Earl!!

    I don't mind trivia questions, even somewhat obscure ones since my brain is crammed full of useless trivial facts. Those last two just got a bit too obscure is all image

    Its 12 Noon. Do I get a spot?


  • << <i>Here is an idea...

    9 AM... eastern, central, mountain, and pacific time zones. The 4 qualifiers from each time zone (for each hour... 9 am, noon, and 3pm would have to answer a brief trivia question. The answer wouldnt be one word... yet a paragraph, written by the submitter... and earl can post and pick which answer is more in depth.

    So far... for the 9am slot would be

    9AM
    Eastern-wazari777
    Central-spiffy469

    Thats just a thought. >>



    I LIKE that idea....

    Wow, while I certainly remember leaving my camera in a tree, I don't know if I could find the thread again. It was in Halifax Square, just after I'd dug a nice Indian cent. I can't remember if it was during VTH1 or not.

    I just went back and read a little of the archived VTH1 post. I forgot that CoC was our alternate during that one, too, and since it was February then, John got snowed in or frozen-out like he did this time, and Jerry stepped in as Alternate. I saw some pics of the pagoda/pavilion he hunted in one of his recent rounds... he did the same site in VTH1.

    So far, Halifax Square has been my site that has seen some searching in all three VTH hunts, although no nontrash finds were dug there for this one.
