And this crane was the last one placed on my trip. So from here on, they'll likely be placed in my home area. Mostly that means that the entries won't be posted in such a mass amount, which is good for all of us. Hopefully people in Montreal and Quebec came across these little guys and come on over to the website.

In the end, I didn't end up leaving it where I took the photo. I sat in the waiting room 1.5 hours until I had to get to my train. Not a single person came back there. So I went and left it closer to the front. But in the interest of trying to be inconspicuous (so that people don't take the crane just because they've seen me photograph it), I just left it there. This may happen again in the future. But rest assured, I left the crane within a hundred feet of this photo. Promise.

And satisfying the museum was! I was particularly fond of their glass exhibit. Certainly recommended. And I try not to place the cranes in a location where they can be sat on, but occasionally that's the only place I can put them. Hopefully this one wasn't sat upon!

This one was sitting at the base of the tree. I doubled back to this room a bit later and saw it was no longer there. Here's to hoping the cleaning crew didn't get it!

I thought this crane was appropriately placed in the 1hour+ long indoor maze. I think this point was near the end. My apologies for the terrible photo quality but pictures weren't aloud in there (Oops!) So I had to be as stealthy as possible. This was the best of the couple I tried to take. (I took none of the actual maze though, just to be clear.) I only made it out with the help of a lovely family. I might've not been so optimistic otherwise!

The ledge was a bit dirty for the crane, but I was hopeful that people coming up (or going down) the stairs would find him.

7. Cheerful

(adj) having or showing good spirits
Location Placed: Olympic Stadium Pool Area, Montreal, Canada
Date Placed: 8/2/10 12:30p.m.






Some of the location pictures are a bit like a search and find mission. This crane is sitting (safely) above the water fountain. A pool area is probably not the best place for a crane (oops!), so I think I will (hopefully) not place any more near them in the future.

(adj) reasonable, honest

I've realized that writing on some of the cranes makes it pretty impossible to read. I think for the next time I make cranes on dark paper, I will likely just print out the word instead of writing it on. You live & you learn. My apologies to the person who received this crane if they couldn't read it!
