The forum thread delves into the hunt for casques from The Secret treasure hunt, with members sharing preferences for different casques and cities, speculating on locations and challenges. Some express skepticism about finding the casques, while others interpret visual clues in the paintings. The thread focuses on a fantasy treasure hunt involving casques hidden in cities like San Francisco, Nashville, Montreal, and Milwaukee, with participants keen on discovering their locations. Specific details about a potential location in Milwaukee are mentioned, along with discussions on motivation to search in Boston if a casque were there. The overall theme is the excitement and curiosity surrounding the hidden casques, with a specific location near the St. Joseph Basilica featuring Greek columns, a harpsichord, and a rotated orientation.

I noticed it was BPs birthday and I thought I might strike up some conversation on The Secret.
If you could have the exact location to one and only one casque, which one and why?
I think mine would be Image 12. I think it has the least visual clues of all the paintings. Plus I thin k it belongs to New York and a trip there would be grand.

It has even fewer visual clues than #12.

oh, this could be some fun fantasy. I suppose I would want to know San Francisco (because it is closest to my backyard), just to confirm that we did (or did not) have it pegged correctly all along. I am convinced that the casques are forever lost to the ravages of Mother Earth, so being given a location's answer would only be to put the hunt to rest.

I'd like to know where the one in my back yard is located so I can go out back and dig it up already (there's a Nashville casque, right?).

Montreal
its the least likely for me to get to, and while it is the only plausible legeater we have ever found.
what are the odds that someone actually found it....
Im pretty sure sooner or later SF will yield its casque.

I don't think I'd even want the location, necessarily, I'd just want to know if we're right about the cities. I think I'd try a bit harder with Boston if I knew for sure there was (or had been) a casque here.

Milwaukee. Even with all my ultracreative-interpolated-technicolor-metaphoric-meteoric-anglulartangular-pseudofactual optimism I can't see a clear solution to Milwaukee.
I do have options: next to the equestrian statue, at it's southern foot, or at the southern foot of a specific tree (closely matching the cape tree rotated 90 degrees) across from a set of greek columns at an old resturant / house next to the St. Joseph Basilica (got harpsichord!).
