If a frog is in a circle and he hops half the distance to the
edge and then half the distance again and continues to do this then
he will never get out of the circle.
Well site back let me tell a tale of such a frog it is a
sad tail with many a death and toil and of the heroic attempt to
beat the odds and find the “Big Pond”.
The hero of our tail is a Frog called Rivett. If
you are brave enough to follow in his pad steps the you will find
Rivett last hopping place. The following little ditty helps to
prepare the scene as his tail is now part of frog ledgend.
I'M A LITTLE FROGGY
(sung to the tune of "I'm a Little Teapot")
I'm a little froggy,
Slick and green.
I once was a tadpole,
As you have seen.
Then I grew some strong legs
While swimming about,
And now I'm a frog.
Hurray, let's shout!
"Rivett!"
The Puddle
Rivett was born in “The Puddle” located in the area
you have been directed to. This was back in the days of old before
the great droughts and in the time of flooding rains. The was a
happy place full of frog spawn and playful tadpoles. Rivett was a
cute tadpole that had a dream. He had heard rumours of climate
change and the need to either evolve or find the "Big Pond".
His dream was to be the one to lead his fellow tadpole when they
emerged as frogs to the promised "Big Pond”. The only hint
he had was a voice from a far away child singing I'm a little Frog.
And the a number (X) of springs on a large pole of red and white
near the pond. He worked out the number pointed to a word in the
Poem. And using simple maths (He was a smart frog) he calculated
the coordinates of the first leg of his journey:
S 35 18.((Sum(letters values of the X
word in poem)x11)-20)
E149.03. ((Sum(letters values of the X word in poem)x9)+46)
So one fine rainy morning he set of with a giant
hop. No one followed him and alas they were never heard from as
they all perished when the big drought came. Many days passed and
he arrived at the Big Structure.
The Big Structure
Here he found a lovely little area to swim and play
and met a new group of frogs who spent their time paying homage to
the Big Structure. He had not seen such a thing before and
he spent days looking at to find a sign. He told the others of the
coming of the Big Drought and the need for the "Big Pond"
but they said they had the Big Structure to protect him.
Then one morning he saw the sign. He remembered the
poem “I'm a little froggy,” He saw the number of large monolithic
rectangular supports (Y) for the big structure and he used his same
trick again knowing it was more than guess work that some form
global positioning deity or system was guiding him to the "Big
Pond" He sat and pondered and worked out his next goal.
S 35 17.((Sum(letters values of the Y
word in poem)x9)-27)
E149.04. ((Sum(letters values of the Y word in poem)x8)-28)
So he set of knowing he was getting closer. The
others said “No we won’t go! The Big Structure will save
us!” Alas they were never heard from as something fell from the
Big Structure and polluted their paradise and they all
died.
The Big Pond (almost)
Rivett was happy after days of travel he knew he
was near the "Big Pond" he could smell it. Then one day he
entered a shaded area that sloped down to the water that seems to
go for ever. He had arrived! He hoped on to a rock looked and
smiled as he had found what he had looked for the “GPS” (as he had
come to call the guiding force in him) had been good to him. After
many days of travel he was almost there. He hopped and slipped and
fell into a gap where he laid trapped and died. To this day you can
find many offerings to the “GPS” at this location in memory of Frog
Rivett.
