We were invited to partake in a scavenger hunt last Sat. We met in downtown Linden and were broken up into teams (4 to a car). We were intentionally paired with another couple that we didn't know and I was glad. The whole point for us was to meet new fun people and that is exactly what we did. Our partners were Keith and Kara and they have the same age kids' as us so we had alot to talk about, when we weren't trying to solve the puzzles and find really well hidden clues! It was such a great time! I love doing this kind of thing and this group of friends is really very special. My girlfriend Wendy, who has been my beloved friend for the past 26 years has been blessed to find a group of friends that are so fun, loyal to one another, caring and just all around supportive. The husbands are just as great as the girls' are and we always have a great time when we get the opportunity to get together with them. Marcia put this scavenger hunt together in less than two weeks for her friend Kim's birthday. She really out did herself! The clues were all about the 80's. She included a bag of snacks that if eaten you'd find a bonus question lingering in the canister of pringles or in my case the box of reeses's pieces. Kara and I were so excited to find those little pieces of paper and to get to the next spot. I found two clues which gets your heart pounding for more. We were in first place until we got stumped on the mushroom caps. We took an hour to find that one!! I found a dead possum and Jamie actually check it's butt for a clue lol! The one picture Jamie is feeding me slimy jello (while blindfolded) with a gummie eyeball in it. The first clue was at the bottom. That started the crazy reckless driving all over Fenton, Linden, Holly, all back country roads to end up back in Linden at Marcia and Dave's house. They then had the Snapper shuttle bus pick us up and drive us to Dinner: yummy apps, pizza, pop. They gave out prizes and Kim's team won!!! Wendy's team and ours tied. All this for the affordable price of $24 buck a roos! Cheap fun...PRICELESS!!! It was totally rad lol! We'd like to shout out to the Linden crew... Thanks for the great night!!!
