Digital Camera Scavenger Hunt!

Rules:  It’s pretty simple!  Follow the list of clues. Locate the place referred to by the clue (or what you think is the right place). Drive there in your Spridget and take a picture that proves you found the clue and include your Spridget to show you were there.  Return to the hotel and download your pictures.  We will have a laptop for you to download to but you will need a USB cable that fits your camera.   The winner will be the one with the most correct pictures!  Oldest car wins a tie breaker…
