Story by Pete Doherty and Nate Ellison
The first day of our exercise in cluelessness started off in the church parking lot. Mike, the only person with any foreknowledge of our destination, could not contain his excitement as we opened the first envelope. His devilish exuberance only increased after seeing our dismay at the contents of the letter. The letter contained instructions as to how to find the first destination, and actually made us think in the middle of the summer. The first mission turned out to be Page Field in Bedford, MA. Our mission, which we must choose to accept, was to walk up to every random stranger and say, "Help me Obi-Wan-Kenobi. You're my only hope," and hope for the appropriate response. Fortunately for our pride, there were only two people in the park, one of whom turned out to be Obi-Wan. The first mission that we received from her was to bike along the Minuteman Bike Trail to Spy Pond Park in Arlington, MA. There we had lunch, and continued on to the Alewife train station. This provided us with the password to receive the second mission. This mission was to visit the Holocaust Memorial at Faneuil Hall and leave a small memorial of stones. One of the quotes engraved on the large glass panels of the memorial provided us with the password for our final mission of the day, which was to eat in Boston, then continue on to Camp Charlton, where we were to spend the night.
