Update to this Quest

Important Note: In both books, we send you to exit 15 of I-89, don’t do it! We mean exit 15 of I-91! If memory serves me right, exit 15 of I-89 is for Saint Michael’s College! 7/13/10 Add this clue between #7 & #8: You will find two forks in the trail — make the sure to bear right, unless you don’t want to do this Quest right! And replace clue #9 with: On your feet, slow and sweet. Walk across the log bridge you meet.
