Hebgen Lake 2011

Let's just say that a picture is worth a thousand words and I've got pictures but no words right now. Here's to Hebgen 2011.

The words worth posting are the rhymes we made for the treasure hunt:

Ahoy Mateys!

If treasure be what ye desire today

Then here be the rules of treasure parlay

Read every clue you find with great care

When traveling by sea - LIFE JACKETS ye must wear

The treasure clues are scattered in pieces

Be sure to take ALL the nephews and nieces

There be treasure awaitin' after you've gone place to place

Everyone show me yer best pirate face!

With a yo ho ho and a bottle of tums

Get going off to the treasure, ye lazy bums!

As the crow flies from the cabin to the dock

Look a few paces up, you'll find a great rock

For the next clue, climb aboard the closest ship

Search carefully to make sure you don't tip

You can look high and you can look low

Find the clue and away you will go

Follow your waverunner cousins - it's a pirate chase

A no-wake zone that rhymes with FOOEY is the place

Well done, you found the clue, me cousins!

Now sail by the place where there are tadpoles by the dozens

Keep your eyes peeled, there's no need to get out

When you see yer next clue, just scream and shout!

Next you should travel to the island of FOWL

It doesn't smell bad, but you could hypothetically see an owl

On the island, look for the clue as hard as you can

You might see something people use to lay out to get a tan

Good job, scallywags! You don't have to walk the plank

Now on to the treasure, it's not the kind from the bank

To find the treasure, you'll have to dig

Those who don't help get thrown in the brig

Go to the volleyball court. X marks the spot

If you all work together, you won't have to dig a lot
