Research is good... but the passage of time has covered lots of tracks. I MYSELF could find nothing that even remotely hints exactly where I grew up. I feel like I WANT to say things like my old phone number, or a friends name, but.... must... resist. If I said my closest and oldest friends name you'd be within 100 ft. of my house... it's the only name like it in the area.

I'm sure if there was anything to find, you'd easily find it if you looked; but, with slips like "only name like it in the area" there's bound to be something out there... ;)

Either way, it's for fun, and if I won, I'd give it to the next person in line. This is a great way to give away free equipment.

Obscure hints are fun...
Actually this IS a more fun way to give stuff away. I'll have to do this again. I have more gear that's sitting idle.

12511 Pacific HWY SW, Lakewood, WA 98499

Oops, you haven't been reading the posts. You are exactly 2,845 miles off.
But it made my evening. :)

BY THE WAY... one of the posters is about 200 feet away from the answer. But is the street right? Is the number wrong? HA!

Flordia is the state

Can i have the Web cam and zip drive!(all i want when i win:) )

Rock Hill Beach House 23

Florida is NOT the state and Rock Hill Beach is a community, not a street.
I can share this because the other posts talk about Pasadena Maryland, and, well, Rock Hill Beach is not a street. Unless there is a Rock Hill Beach Street... which there is not. Well, at least it wasn't there in 1976.
 
There WAS something about Mary...

The Sandbar, that's it. And if you were the dude hurling out back, then I was probably the poor schmuck who stepped in it on the way out to my '73 El Camino after the show.:p
Forget 'loosa. Remember Paper Cup?:eek:

I did my own searching... Look below.. Retired clubs in MD. I forgot Sandbar was named Network later on. That's when younger ones started showing up in their expensive cars thinking it was Hollywood.
I frequented Hammerjacks (next to the new stadium in Baltimore) Marmadukes, with Dick in the Piano doing showtunes for my over-sexed girlfriend Mary (When the contest is over, the map I send will show the location of the first time I got a round-the-world from her) Mr. Bojangles, Red Horse Inn, and a few others.

Sunday Is The Day

Since traffic has slowed, I've decided to end it this Sunday.
One of you is so close that a thrown baseball could hit my old house, and is on the same street as my oldest and closest friend I spoke of.
Been fun, and the package is ready to ship.
See you Sunday...

is it 135 Cottage Grove Dr, Pasadena, MD? :D

I'm so close to figuring out the clues but I just can't! It's driving me batty!

Wish I could give another clue since it's not fair to the others....
Sunday morning you will know how close you are.

I'm not going to be able to wait until Sunday morning.

You have to end this tonight, the suspense is killing me.
 
How about if I can find out more about your folks? (sorry about that - I was trying to work from there).

Does that win me a consolation prize?

PS - your dad's birthday is my parents wedding anniversary :)
