Back from the Great Virginia Race



Bob, Rebecca, and David (Chan, not Kelman) went on a Ravenchase across Virginia. Our first day time was, um, not so good. Our second day we did quite well, however, so we award ourselves the "Most Improved" trophy.

Tune in next week to see how we do at the race in CA. Bob and I are headed to Fullerton and one of our activities will be a Ravenchase on Hollywood Boulevard.

By the way, our final race time was 13 hours (+ a little). It was split over two days, but that was serious puzzling!

Your gnome photos ROCK! Leibniz looked like he had a good time. Did you BYOG or did you pick up Leibniz there? Did you name him? There is a place in Virginia called DOOM?!? What was the winning race time?

We brought our newly acquired gnome to the game. Part of the race was to take pictures with gnome in various locations.

There is a place in VA called Dooms. Crazy, huh?

The winning team finished in 11 hours 20 minutes. We took 13 hours 10 minutes. We were in last place at the end of day one (2.5 hours behind the leaders.) We made up quite a bit of time on the second day. There were a ton of cops on the highway so we couldn't speed, which was a good thing.

That looks like so much fun.
