The Hunt is On!!

Went on a  treasure hunt with a friend. 

Oh sorry I think the term is scavenger hunt. 

It was promoted by a local store.  Part of the celebration for their 5th Anniversary. 

The idea was, go around with a sheet of clues, and visit all these other stores. Get them to sign your sheet, and answer the cryptic riddles about each particular participating store.
In Williamsburg.

Exhausting.
But not for my friend!
She delightedly (and competitively) ran from store to store, like a mad woman, and loved every minute of it!!  It wasn't stores that were all that close by, either. Some of them were close to a mile apart!

And damned if she not only won the grand prize, 
but also stirred up business for herself on two fronts, 
won some other prizes including a free haircut and a free picture framing. 
And other such stuff.

In truth, she was fulfilled. And, inspired.

So I guess in reality, it WAS a treasure hunt.  
She won the booty!
