Aquabug Clues:

Clue #1 / May 30, 2025 / 10:30am:

 Years and years and years and years…

From RCU we start from here…

Years But change is good and it’s good to change…

So this year starts way out on the “range”!

Clue #2 / May 30, 2025 / 3:30pm:

You can putt around all you want,

Or you can get in your car and head for the race…

Leaving there of “Course” will be subpar

So go left and south twenty plus a half for the bug chase!

Clue #3 / May 31, 2025 / 10:30am:

Lake on the right but not always seen,

Keep winding past white fences to twenty-two-plus…

Left or right the choice needs to be made,

Bolt over the bridge and get works and brew from Russ!

Clue #4 / May 31, 2025 / 3:30pm:

Cheese for the club, and cheese for the band,

Trackers to tracks this will be quite Grand…

You can stop for a time but be sure to make it Good…

Go left, sound out slurred like a snake, understood?

Clue #5 / June 1, 2025 / 10:30am:

The crack of the wood, the crack of the stick,

Fix your ride or your temp with the help of this place…

Fill your gut or your tank or your grill or your health…

Pick up for the night, if friends show up, just in case!

Clue #6 / June 1, 2025 / 3:30pm:

At a “T” again, which way do we go now?

It’s “Safe” to go right, so “adjust” your plan…

Traveling west is the right way,

To Insure you catch the light before Bucky says left, man!

Clue #7 / June 2, 2025 / 10:30am:

W.O.W.!  We are tracking and running south to fields,

Past champions and future ones we head down the heart…

Go left, cross the bridge, going east with some yields,

Getting closer to where our bug chase used to start!

Clue #8 / June 2, 2025 / 3:30pm:

But wait! We’re turning sooner ‘cause we dumped our old oil,

Time once again to go south, that’s right, are we off the main drag?

Make the call, delivered or not…

But fast is the key, as you clip along to the bug spot.

Clue #9 / June 3, 2025 / 10:30am:

Past all the back doors of places you know,

Repeating your way to fuel, for the search flow,

Then it’s right to go right, because the Main goal is quick,

And right, right away, to go west but says south, how sick!

Clue #10 / June 3, 2025 / 3:30pm:

WE are all on track now, past the Blue, then through…

The meadows are common; we are left educated to be rounded…

What a Perfect clue this is to have right now,

It’s plumb fun at a park with no swings to be founded!

Clue #11 / June 4, 2025 / 10:30am:

We are all Good to help others,

And our Adventure continues…

Ohhh, how much fun this has been,

Now stop and make sure that you are clear with your clues!

Clue #12 / June 4, 2025 / 3:30pm:
Furnished clues mean go right, don’t get painted into a corner,

Bridge again under you, and then right we rev up to go!

You need optimum efforts, varied health and maybe a paddle or a stone!
