Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Also keep track of when the various un-found eggs are found. I bet you'll be finding some NEXT Easter.

Not my circus. That's entirely Middle Brother's folly to deal with.

Now I'm curious what percentage of their yard will be eggs when they are all hidden. I think it would just be rows of eggs every few inches if I tried to hide that many in my yard, but I have not hidden easter eggs in decades, perhaps my sense of proportion is off by a lot. But if I had 300 little flags like the utility company puts out to mark underground lines in my yard, I would think my yard was full of flags. Or, say, dandelions.

I will definitely document the hilarity and pitfalls of this harebrained scheme, for sure.

Also, harebrained, I see what you did there. Took me a minute, but I did catch on

Ha! That was 100% unintentional. Tim always refers to his almost-certainly-not-life-threatening ideas as harebrained schemes, so it's the local lingo.

I feel like Middle Brother should create an elaborate egg map.

That does feel like something he would do. If there's a map, I will definitely take a picture of it.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My one uncle used to hide an egg in his mouth.

He had a particularly large mouth.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I guess if there are a lot of trees or shrubs they could utilize vertical space for egg hiding. I agree that this is something that could be fun to watch from the sidelines. Not to conflate kids and pets, but one year a friend of a friend gathered up all the lost and used up tennis balls from her local court. There must have been 50 of them. She gave them to my then-roommate for her lab-shepherd mix, Sam. Roomie just dumped the entire box of balls out onto the living room floor, and Sam went nuts. It was great! The 300-Easter egg event could have the same energy.
