DGCR Secret Santa Christmas 2012

[kutz167]

Just dropped both of mine at the PO. Expected delivery is 12/1/12. Now I get to have some fun and get you guys guessing.

First one:
The country it is going to has been around since July 4, 1776.

This state is home to the B&O Railroad Museum.

In this county, Leisure and Hospitality account for 10% of the economy.

When you go to this town's home page, the first link you see is one about tornado facts.


Second one:
This country's first president was a man by the name of John Hanson.

This state has a mineral called Bastnaesite in a county that has a name resembling that of a certain polygon.

This county has a name resembling that of a very popular superhero.

The mission statement of this city's police department is:

"The members of the [omitted] Police Department are committed to providing the highest quality of professional police services. We strive to protect life, enforce and uphold the law, preserve order, and protect property. In partnership with citizens, city government, and other stakeholders, we commit ourselves to improving the quality of life in our community."

So, what do you guys think? Where in the world did I ship my two SS packages to?

Dang... The town I'm in has an area of 2.75 square miles

Stuck working late and my wife just sent me a pic of my SS package! I still can't send mine until I stop by the pro shop on Saturday, so it won't go out until Monday.

To maintain the spirit of fairness and anticipation, I will not open my package until I send mine out - just wanted to let Santa know it got here safely and ahead of schedule. Thank you in advance and I will post pics as soon as I open it!

I should have mine out by monday. It wont be too hard to find out for the person im sending it to to find out who sent it. I am throwing in some discs from around my house as well. one isnt on the list of his wants, but its an 11x champ disc so hopefully the person im sending to will be happy with it. I gotta go to the pro shop and pick up some stuff too!
