Wait, Virginia Public Media?

Holy crap. This story made All Things Considered!

There winds up being a lot of reading between the lines in this thing, and it's hard to say if she doesn't want to put pressure on someone to continue it or actively doesn't want it to continue (for artistic vision, etc.).

I think you have to take her at face value, but one can hope. Lol

Bummer! It seems like such a good thing for the arts community and the city.

Nice! I'm in the "too many tabs open" phase. Lol But I definitely have a front runner at this point. I might need a lot more copper...

I actually was kicking around GOAT ideas, but I think it would be a bit bankshot. Especially with how difficult it is to get fine detail into my pieces.

RIP Cake guy.

I feel like I at least need a baseline idea to mull before I inevitably drop it for a few months. Lol

Ooh, fun! Can't wait to see!

So many options in this vein. Lol

I went down a little Goya rabbit hole last night, which is always a good time. Both his goat and sheep offerings were provocative (but don't lend themselves to my medium very well 😅).

Horse is harder to work with than you might think!

I kind of appreciate the flexibility between sheep and goat. Lol I think there could be some fun takes!

Your explanation behind Picasso was a fantastic read, by the way! I don't think I got a chance to mention that.

I had a few options kicking around. I like one in particular, but I'll have to see how technically feasible it is.

Have you guys started thinking about ram/sheep/goat?

It's not a particularly popular spot, but there's enough info in the clue. It's visible from the sidewalk at the right angle, but not the most common angle. I'd say probably gone, but not guaranteed.

That's a big part of why I haven't joined. I don't need my name tied to all that.

It's nice here though! Good vibes and not too hectic. You've been around a bit. You know.

You're welcome! You'll have to pardon that porosity. The first of a pour is always an interesting one. 😅

Ok, ok. Last hide of the season!

This is an abandoned concept I carved up but didn't have time to pursue.

This hide location felt fitting for my seahorse! Lol

Last coin! I tried to come up with a fitting place to stash my last coin and couldn't come up with anything better than a nod to the pony express!

Plus with that view...

#monkeyshines2026

Fun fact, this coin was the first of my casting session, and my second to last to hide!

#monkeyshines2026

No way! Congratulations!

Pretty sure we saw this found.

Linc up with the trees in this park to find our next hide!

#monkeyshines2026

Grab a seat and enjoy the sun in this smallish park!

#monkeyshines2026

Sun's out, birds are lively. Last call for my coins this afternoon!

#monkeyshines2026

Thank you! It's been a weird year for us for all kinds of reasons. Hopefully we're in a little better place to go ham for next year!

The perspective totally got me! Nice one!

Saw it was found, but we're stumped by this one!

Woohoo! Congrats!

Love that green! Congrats!

I have a handful of my coins and a random carved wood seahorse that still need to go out tomorrow sometime! Stay tuned!

A weight has been lifted from my shoulders! Finally got one last night! Thank you so, so much to all who make this possible!

Seriously, this is a special thing that doesn't just happen everywhere.
