My new friend in Three Rivers shared an interesting story with me. She said that her nephew, who lives in a neighboring town, purchased a fan at a thrift store about 40 years ago. This aged fan faithfully cooled his work area until recently when it broke.
Certain he could repair the fan, he took it apart. To his surprise he found a secret letter in the base of the fan. It was very old and written from one brother to another. It stated, " I have hidden the money at the base of ******( I won't write the real name for fear of a treasure hunting frenzy) rock where we used to play when we were children.
My friend laughed it off and said that nobody in her family had ever heard of ****** rock. Well having lived in Three Rivers most of my life, I certainly know exactly where that location is. She saw my expression and I shared with her that I could locate the area.
Together she and I have pledged to one day pack a picnic lunch, don our Indiana Jones hats and set off for a great day of treasure hunting. Results to follow.....
