So for those of you keeping score at home, Chief Cranquistador(k) ohheytherehi is one of only two readers to find a treasure hunt prize. Here is her personal account of finding the treasure, if you're interested in vicariously experiencing the thrill of finding a prize for yourself.

The treasure itself is a CD with 6 audio tracks of Your Friendly Neighborhood Cranquis, primarily of me reading/retelling the Intern Year Survival Guide, plus A Stupid Poem. And ohheytherehi has been large-hearted enough to post all the tracks on Tumblr for all of you to enjoy...

Even though the rest of you are all slackers who couldn't work up the energy to travel to New York and find the prize yourselves. 

  Anyways... here are the links to those audio posts. Enjoy! :)

Very good! But not as impressive as THIS deduction:

From all the way down in Montgomery, and having never been there*, i hope this prize is at the NYPL.  :-)

*There being the NYPL.  A dream destination of mine.

And now to business. I feel I am going to roar. You had better put your fingers in your ears!

The El Gala Grande treasure hunt has begun, and I ain't lyin'.

And this prize is particularly special: a recording of Yours Truly reading some of my posts and poetry.

Pfft who read the news? oh i see, with the accident of John Carter. gotcha. so Charlotte? Also, what if wild animals get there before cranquistadors do?

John Carter, 47 from Garner area killed in accident on North Carolina Highway 50

Oh my. What a coincidence! Totally not what I was referring to, but what a terrific distractor. (My condolences to the family of the real-life John Carter). Stay focused on the fictional fellow. And I think you 2 should be talking to THIS person:

Okay, Croatoans lives on what is Now Roanoke Island…in NC, my current abode. But John Carter… Died in Richmond, Va. per the Internet. I haven’t seen the movie… so, um… I got nothin.

LOL is that your finger we see on the GPS?! What if none of your followers live in Missouri? o.O Seriously people go already. I wanna solve more clues ;)

Yes, that's my finger.

I would think that, in today's internet age, the answer would be simple: use the Facebook to share the clues with friends who may live closer to the location. (You didn't think I was doing this treasure hunt purely for the fun of it, right? This is your opportunity to spread the gospel of Cranquis!) :)
