From the Winners:
During our journey with thought the cave was the stage for the Sizzling Summer Concert Series. We thought those who gave were the bricks of those who donated. We also thought the doctor will see you now, was in reference to the dock, but we thought the bow was the bow of the showboat. We looked and looked there.

Possibly, Rocky Balboa, in a rock and Baggins was by the ring (Lord of the Rings). Then we saw the “rings” a little further up the Riverwalk and knew we were getting close. Three, two, one “launch” took us closer to the boat launch. Once we saw the “something for all the dogs who run” – we knew it was near the waste station for the dogs. We searched and searched. Finally, there was “the cave”. This one was a doozy.
