billy - Which artwork do you think belongs to the Josh Gibson verse? The Washington Monument one with skulls. |

Although the art work seems to suggest Allegheny Cemetery. ***NO CEMETERIES!!!*** There is a statue of him in KC, MO at the museum. That would be a good place! I'm really leaning towards Nationals Park statue, given the '295' in the artwork. |

Wondering if "69" is for the 69th Infantry Regiment. They fought at the First Battle of Bull Run. It's 30 minutes away from DC though, and does not fit with the poem. As can I, as can I.... It could also be that he hit 69 home runs in one year. He was CRUSHING it! |

But you can't get into Nat's Park right now. Wondering if "69" is for the 69th Infantry Regiment. They fought at the First Battle of Bull Run. It's 30 minutes away from DC though, and does not fit with the poem. It could also be that he hit 69 home runs in one year. He was CRUSHING it! |

I believe that the red page verse is in St. Louis and aligns with the image of the Thomas Jefferson Statue and the sail boat. Any idea what the carving tool thing is or the wooden looking V shaped thing at the top of the image?

The Thomas Jefferson is pointing to a music note in the image, which pointed me to the St. Louis Blues. I found the identical Thomas Jefferson Statue located in the St. Louis, Forest Park History Museum. I then found a "Priest" "St. Louis" (Apotheosis of Saint Louis) holding a knife outside of the St. Louis Art Museum also in Forest Park
Other than that, I'm kind of stumped. Don't know where the haunted church is. There appears to be some type of garden walking path in the image, but I can't find anything like that. So maybe it is in DC and I have no idea what the heck I'm talking about.

So maybe it is in DC and I have no idea what the heck I'm talking about. My logic was based on "It was known only by its number" = DC (roman numeral 600) "Tangled, trapped and bound in red tape" sounds like DC, lol "Forgiveness is tough in the city of deals" could be DC.
Although, this could apply to a lot of places.

Agreed. Those make a lot of sense too. I'm so confused. I'm going to bed and going to forget about it for awhile. Maybe tomorrow I'll have a new city that makes sense.

What are thoughts on the black poem with misspelled "fallin" and the odd shape? There are thousands of monuments around the country near museums, and the proxys seem to be found in public parks or trails. I havent gotten a good anagram from the bold letters yet but will keep trying. But don't want to waste time if it is a red herring...haha. Thanks!

I think the Mary who made bullets is Mary Draper Ingles. She and her hubby returned to the New River Gorge in West Virginia/Virginia after being captured by the Indians. I think the poem is the one which mentions a waterfall, fly fishing white water Rafting, all popular attractions of the area. I can't find a city with "ville" or a dream park HELP
