Treasure Hunt

My hubby created the most amazing treasure hunt for Dylan's birthday.  He started out writing some very clever clues:
Here's one of them - "Congrats you found the second clue, but don't get excited there is more to do.  Leave the house and head for the street, to the place where they meet.  Hang a left and walk a bit.  Many gifts you're trying to get.  Notice a fence on your left.  Take a peek and see what you get!"

Then he made a map from where he would find his last clue, leading him to where X Marks the Spot!
He cut the map out into pieces and glued one clue to the back of each piece.
He hid the clues on the garbage bin,
on the fence,
in a construction area across the street,
on the base of a tree,
on the mailbox,
 and on the base of the bird feeder.
 The last clue had a small present attached.
 Then he put all his clues together to reveal his map.
 Now he knew where he was going!
 On the way he found more presents.
 They somehow "appeared" even in places he had already gone!
 He made it to X Marks the Spot, with a big package waiting for him!
Dylan had a BLAST going through the clues and map to find his "treasure".  Thank you Chris for putting together such a great time!
