the first hit that came up for yellow cactus is a diner in Floyds Knobs, In. About a 30-40 minute drive across the river for me....

THANKFULLY! I didn't come to the site before I worked on the code, he he. Amandel is dang good. Did anyone shoot that info over to her? I didn't see any comments on the blog post and that would be the best place for it.

Also, about what the poet wrote on the back of the address, "Very few poets can be trusted." I told her it's more than likely a round about way of him saying not to trust her superiors, seeing as they put the info in a book of poetry...

Her reply:

I got the trailhead email, and then another one with the link to the Blog.

I've chatted with our email correspondant a bit, and he gave me this address:

Hi hollyhobbes. Am not seeing a "Map" blog entry. Was a map also attached in an email?

Amandel,
Sorry for the confusion. I meant email instead of blog. There is so much information spread out! I will be more careful next time.

You guys may have already figured this out, but Yellow Cactus is a painting by O'Keefe that currently hangs in the Dallas Museum of Art. Since the title of her mission is "Triangulate," perhaps Eden needs to find a location based on 3 places in or near Dallas? If that's the case, I would think that the Museum is probably one of the locations. Or maybe she just needs to go to the Museum and see the painting. What do you guys think?

I think that idea is sound. Have you suggested that to Eden yet? I saw O'Keefe when researching 'yellow cactus' but had no idea it was in Dallas. Good job ironnikki!

Also I feel like we haven't solved this puzzle yet:

That was solved. It was a clue saying it was a poet because it was done in a form that poets use.
