    did anyone contact them?

    i like this treasure hunt idea... maybe $5 to do it per car... should keep the costs down for whoever is spending the $ to initiate it...

    just a thought.

    $5 per person is very cheap I would say. Thanks for the feedback.
    Would also help pay for the prizes. The more teams of 2 we have the bigger the prizes can be. :) Maybe we could have a few people who aren't participating to be the judges waiting at the designated place.
    They can help to make sure that everyone returns before the time deadline.

    About 50 cars crashed today on a highway blanketed by fog and smoke from a brush fire in Central Florida, and local officials said three people were killed and others were injured in the mangled, fiery wrecks.

    A stretch of nearly 15 miles of Interstate 4 between Tampa and Orlando was closed by several accidents, including the 50-car pileup. Aerial footage showed the soupy mix of fog and smoke covering the landscape for miles and giving the sky an eerie golden color in the morning.

    Early this afternoon, the Florida Highway Patrol said I-4 would be closed in both directions for several more hours near Polk City.

    The poor visibility hampered rescue efforts, forcing officials to walk along the closed stretch of I-4 checking individual vehicles for injuries, Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Larry Coggins said. The conditions later cleared up, showing mangled, charred trucks and cars pinned underneath some tractor trailers.

    Thank you guys so much for thinking of us!! It means alot, but we are fine like Jason said eariler. It was just a big headache trying to get out of town because they were sending everyone from I4 into our town and so we couldn't get out. It was horrible.

    That's one big mess and just watching videos captured by news helicopters I still can't believe it happened.

    Glad you and Amanda are safe Frank.
