Legend of Mike Rowe



In the cold winter month of December in the year 1784 a baby boy was born. The boy was given the name Michael Rowe. Mike was named for his father, and his fathers’ father. A generation continued with the birth of Mike and he had big shoes to fill. Congratulations you have figured out the puzzle!!!
Though he was just a baby, Mike showed great interest in building and creating things. He would play with extra pieces of twigs and sticks that were left from firewood. As time went on and as Mike got older- he began building bigger things. At 12 years old Mike was building wood sheds for his neighbors. Now that you were able to solve this here you go

Mikes work got better and word spread he was making wood sheds. More and more people began to ask him to build wood sheds and other structures with his talent and craftiness. Mike was more than willing to oblige. North 40 24 830

One person in particular became very interested in Mikes woodwork. Wilbur White was an expert wood craftsman. He had been in the wood working business for many decades. He was looking for someone to take over his business. Wilbur was getting older and needed a great craftsman to take on the business. West 079 33 457

After talking to Mike for a few days and meeting Mike’s family, Wilbur knew that Mike was the right person for the task. Shortly after the meeting with Mikes family, Wilbur asked if Mike was interested in going to Boston to become his apprentice. Mike excited and nervous graciously accepted. Now go get it Cachers!!!!

On the road to Boston, Mike had a lot of time to think and to draw out new designs for the woodsheds and other structures. No matter where Mike was always thinking and designing. Just before they reached Boston Mike asked Wilbur what kinds of things he would be doing. Wilbur told mike that he would be doing the same things he was doing at home just at a greater scale. And Congratulation on Solving this one!!!!
Boston proved to be a great challenge for Mike, the people were more demanding than those back home. They wanted bigger and better and the people of Boston wanted it NOW… This was a lot more than Mike was ready for. Mike was not going to give up and make anything less than he was used to doing… So he presumed to build bigger and better. Now just filling in space to make it all even
As time went on mike met a girl and later got married. They had 5 children and the first born was a boy and can you take a guess as to what the name was … Yes that’s right he was named Jacob. Not what you expected? Well while he was in Boston he met another carpenter and they became best friends. As a pack of faith they promised each other that they would name their first born sons after each other. Available in winter

Mikes work can be seen today. As a true work of beauty this is one of the things that Mike was creating in Boston. Enjoy the magnificence and splendor of the creations we are still using today…now the color wars can accept this cache.....
