Hi Folks - 

    I just ran across what I think is the most interesting thing. 

    An author named Michael Stadther has written a book called The
    Treasure's Trove, about "...about twelve forest creatures whose
    mates disappear after being crystallized by a dark dust that falls
    every evening."  

    According to his Web site, www.atreasurestrove.com, "Concealed in
    the pages of this wonderful, classically-written story are the clues
    to twelve very real and very valuable treasures that are hidden
    around the continental USA -- treasures similar to the crystallized
    forest creatures in the story -- beautiful jewels worth over
    $1,000,000!" 

    Master jeweler Robert Underhill was commissioned to make the jeweled
    creatures, pictures of which can be found here: 
    http://atreasurestrove.com/Public/TheTreasureHunt/TheJewels/index.cfm 

    The jewels will be on display in Tucson from February 10-13 at the
    Tucson Gem and Mineral Society Show.  The Web site shows other dates
    and locations. 

    According to the Web site:  "To find one of these fabulous jewels,
    decipher the clues in A Treasure's Trove and go to an exact location
    to find a gold token. The gold token will give you the information
    you need to get your jewel. Twelve gold tokens, each one redeemable
    for one of the 12 jewels, are hidden in 12 separate locations across
    the continental USA. The tokens are located so that at least one is
    within a days's drive of anyone in the continental USA. The tokens
    are not hidden on private property, or in dangerous places, but in
    places accessible to everyone. The tokens are not buried. Nothing
    has to be moved or lifted to find them." This sure sounds like fun to
    me.  Have any other Orchidians heard about this?  Is anybody
    participating? 

Linda
