At the risk of Mountie-splaining where you live… What about these?

Also, I was so stuck on the mill part, I forgot about someplace else I can try.

“Or twinkle in the sky” sounds like stars/planets, which leans toward a planetarium/observatory…

or the solar system walk that’s much closer than the heckin’ Millhopper. :bashfacepalm:

I could go take a look around Orlando. I’m in town and have little to do tomorrow afternoon

There’s a solar system walk here in Bellingham, WA I’ll check out later today.

I found a piece of memory! I thought it might be at the “planet walk” here in Bellingham, but no luck. However, there is a place called the SPARK Museum about the history of electricity. I think this is most likely the “Jolt in the sky.” Here it is:

And the coordinates as well:

Awesome find, @Mike! I think we’re working off the assumption that each of these are paired verses (one verse from the first stanza and another from the second). Can you think of any that yours might match?

We’re working on the assumption that the clue “That grow but aren’t alive” is part of my clue, but let us know your ideas on it!

Perhaps “On wires or things”?

Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking since it’s a museum on the history of electricity. That would make the most sense.

Hey gang, sorry I’ve been MIA. Been trying to sort some things out for a massive shift.
So I don’t have anything massively avgeeky near me BUT I do have a memorial to Charles Kingsford-Smith. An early aviation pioneer who, in 1928, made the first Transpacific flight between the US and AUS. I’ll go check that out when I’m back in Brisbane.

oh hey, good timing skylad. I just heard on “Let me Google That” that theres an area near you called The Pinnacles. Are you near them or are they maybe something that relates to one of the clues?

Which pinnacles??? Off the top of my head I know of the sandstone pillars in WA but that’s the other side of the country

Okay, maybe it’s just because I live here, but hear me out. On the way to Lincoln (link in) Nebraska, there’s the Strategic Air Command & Aerospace Museum. Have never been there myself. It is near the Platte River, which dumps into the Missouri near Offut AFB.

I’m not sure how Sydney came into all of this, but there is also a Sydney, Nebraska on the other side of the state.

Other thoughts:
-Could grow but not alive be fire?

-I like the travel between north and south being the monarch butterfly

-gold bubbles, there’s a town in CO where there are sparkling springs, Manitou Springs, it’s mineral water. there’s actually 8 springs there, so it’s really a meeting of waters! They also have a super awesome open air arcade and even an antique penny arcade if anyone makes it out there. Super cool hippy town.

That actually sounds really promsing

According to Google Manitou Springs is a few hours from me so I could definitely take a day to travel down there and try the location

So are we thinking there is another clue in Kamloops? There was one last set that nearly stumped me, but I can put my thinking cap on if we are thinking there is another one here with the “meeting of water” line?
