I’ve lived in this town for nine years, and I’ve never left a treasure chest. So odd, considering I’ve left over 900 chests in the city. Today I figured I’d get it started again.

Four years ago I declared that this rock slab would become my gallery. I did make a tiny snowman on it (the one where I accidentally used wasp larvae nests).

This rock is next to a winding sidewalk. Evergreen trees provide a natural fence from the parking lot for the Main Street Park District. Here’s a video of the placement.
