click to search using Google MapsHeyyy, so to tide everyone over until I can come up with more clues, here is our first reader submitted clue. A fun little UFO. Thank you to everyone who has sent in clues so far. P.S. the more obscure the clue (and location) the better…

So, this is another sort of experiment… I’m giving you the word clue just as Josh submitted it but you’ll notice that the “geographical”-ness of the clue is somewhat muted. “Midwest”… that’s all you get! I think this will make it a bit harder. However, on the other hand I’m thinking that it will cause the clue to be found almost exclusively by people who actually live in the vicinity of the clue. We’ll see I guess!

Oh so if you feel like it, along with the solution tell me if you are located close to the clue. This will give me some idea as to whether only people who are located near this clue are solving it.
