Did Forrest want us out looking for the home of Brown?

[Jenny]

At first glance, Forrest's answer below seems to say, I wanted you to go out and look for it- the treasure chest. But what if 'it' is something else? As some of you may know, my current theory is 'it' might also be the home of Brown and part of the Chase's 'secret story'.....

20)Why did you hide the treasure in the place you did?
Because I wanted you to go out looking for it

Some thoughts on my home of Brown theory:

 Thanks for putting together this collection of forest quotes on the home of Brown.

Your commentaries are very insightful and I also believe that forrest often has more second level information. For example in your quote 4), where forrest simply answered “No”, I believe he was telling something about the home of Brown. 

It is the most concise example I know of from Forest where he Says opposite things in the same sentence, depending on interpretation

Despite my last name LOL
I honestly believe that Home of Brown is the most decisive clue this clue in the poem get any searcher within the region. I don’t think the chest is located near the HOB but it is the region of the chests location.
Here is why: poem recited

Put in below the home of Brown.

From there it’s no place for the meek

There is a break in the poem, put in below this home of Brown “AND THEN” from there it’s no place for the meek.

THE HOME OF BROWN IS A DESTINATION LOCATION...

[Jenny]

I agree it can be taken that way......

But it can also be taken that FROM THERE could be referring to where you PUT IN. And the words 'below the home of Brown' is actually the treasure location- where you are going. So From THERE, again where you 'put in' And then 'IT'S' (no place for the meek) of the poem is referring back to the home of Brown.....

The Treasure Location/home of Brown is no place for the meek. It's a place people don't normally go or know of...

Just an option to keep in mind, because it is possible it could be taken that way.... But I also keep in mind what you are suggesting......
