The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but that location
may provide account information. Before you proceed any
further, you will need an account number.
To get your account number you will need to travel. Many
of you have been on trips, but they were not like this one! Start
your journey in NEW YORK city, the Big Apple, the city that
never sleeps. While you are there, eat a hot dog, see a show, take
the A train. When you are done there make your way to LGA, JFK,
EWR, or, if you have the time, rent a car. Whichever way you
travel, make your way to DALLAS. The motto there is “Live
large, think big.” Enjoy your stay. Buy some boots and a cowboy hat
to blend in. Of course, your trip has only just begun. Next you’ll
need to make your way to CHICAGO, the Second City. It
doesn’t matter if you drove in on the Stevenson Highway or landed
at ORD or MDW; either way, you should cruise the Magnificent Mile.
Stick your toes in Lake Michigan; brrrrrr, no surfing there.
Time to move on! Plan on seeing the Golden Gate Bridge in SAN
FRANCISCO. Are you hungry from the traveling? Eat Dim Sum in
Chinatown, ride the cable cars and take the ferry to Alcatraz. If
the fog is getting you down, it could be time to head into Dixie.
Make your way back across the continent to ATLANTA. Have
your fill of soul food, get lost on a street named Peachtree, and
know that around there dog is spelled D-A-W-G.
Relax and take a breather; you are at the half-way point. All
refreshed? Great! Get a move on to BOSTON, Beantown, home of
the no longer cursed Red Sox. For transportation there we recommend
the T. Go to Faneuil Hall, follow the Freedom Trail, but be careful
of all the “cahhs pahhked in Hahhvahhd Yahhd.” Next you’ll want to
head to RICHMOND. You can take Amtrak if you like. There you
can tour a James River plantation and the Edgar Allan Poe Museum.
(Of course, Poe’s house is in Baltimore, but that city is not on
your itinerary … Nevermore.) If, after the beating of the Tell-tale
Heart you are not too scared to continue, make another visit to
CHICAGO. I told you it was the Second City; that’s why you
have to go there twice! Plus, it’s not that far from your next
destination. As long as you're back there, head into Hyde Park,
where Frank Lloyd Wright created some marvelous architectural
masterpieces. Next, put on your dancing shoes and go visit the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame in CLEVELAND. It is definitely worth
the trip, at least once in a lifetime. You don’t have to stay long,
so then be off to PHILADELPHIA, city of Brotherly Love, home
of the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall. History is all around
you there. Only a couple more stops before you come home! Many
trips have some backtracking, so now you will have a layover back
in RICHMOND. Don’t worry though, your final stop is
KANSAS CITY. This metropolis in the heartland is home to
Hallmark Cards headquarters (you’ve bought a few of those haven’t
you?). Hope you enjoyed your trip!
