I am on an Island.

I am in the US.

BadNick 06-18-2009 05:08 AM

east of our Miss?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 05:13 AM

West

Shell 06-18-2009 05:36 AM

...off the california coast?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 05:48 AM

No.

Shell 06-18-2009 07:37 AM

...pacific ocean?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 07:47 AM

Not an island in the Pacific.

Shell 06-18-2009 08:21 AM

...us territories?

Jetée 06-18-2009 08:25 AM

The Aleutian Archipelago (also known as the "Alaskan Bush")?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 09:23 AM

I am located within the lower 48 states.

Jetée 06-18-2009 09:39 AM

bordering Gulf of Mexico?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 09:44 AM

No, not in the Gulf.

Here's a hint, the water surrounding me is not salty.

Jetée 06-18-2009 10:08 AM

Great Lakes region

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 10:18 AM

No, not in one of the great lakes.

BadNick 06-18-2009 11:01 AM

are you somewhere in the Puget Sound / San Juan Islands group?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 11:10 AM

No but you're a lot closer then the great lakes guess.

BadNick 06-18-2009 11:14 AM

are you in Lake Mead? (or what's left of it!)

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 11:22 AM

No smaller body of water.

Jetée 06-18-2009 11:50 AM

you are in Mountain Time, aren't you?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 11:52 AM

No I'm not in MT.

BadNick 06-18-2009 12:51 PM

does the state you are in border the Pacific Ocean?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 01:03 PM

Yes, you've successfully narrowed your search to three states.

Jetée 06-18-2009 01:30 PM

Oregon islands? (We already eliminated Cali and Alaska)

(all that may remain after this is Washington and Hawaii.)

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 01:40 PM

#6530 and #6533 rule out Hawaii.

When did we rule out California?

But I am in fact on an island in Oregon.

I thought you were on an Oregon island before the Great Lakes or Gulf of Mexico guesses, but I know my two guesses more intimately than any single Oregon island (of which I know none), so I was hoping my intuition was wrong on that one.

Well, as I'm trying out in another thread, I will try an alphabet-oriented guess:

Are you on an island named in between A-M? (e.g. Black Rock, Grassy Island, Mack Arch)
(Oh, man I just realized there's over 300 islands associated with Oregon)...

Shell 06-18-2009 02:24 PM

...Jantzen Island in Lake Oswego?
It's for sale, btw, in case you have 20 million burning a hole in your pocket.

The agent's write-up provides the facts. Asking price, $19.5 million, the most expensive residential property in Oregon. Living space, 13,500 square feet, split between a guest house and the original English Tudor home built in 1929 for Carl Jantzen, a founder of Jantzen Knitting Mills.

Bedrooms: five. Bathrooms: six. Fireplaces: three. Roof: slate. Patio, pool, sauna, shop, boathouse: built like a castle. Terraces, waterfalls, a rose garden, nearly one mile of walking trails. And a gated, stone bridge that trolls could easily inhabit.

"You can just smell the history in that boathouse," said real-estate broker Justin Harnish, "There's an old stone bench where you can sit and look straight down the lake and see Mount Hood."

From my other post-

Quote:

No, not in the Gulf.

Here's a hint, the water surrounding me is not salty.
So it could have been a Californian island, just not one in the Pacific or off the coast. My guess is , like Oregon, California has 100's of islands in lakes and rivers, streams, reservoirs and ponds.

And no- not between A-M


And no not Jantzen Island in Lake Oswego. I have water skied near Jantzen Island. The island I'm on I've camped on several times.

Jetée 06-18-2009 03:52 PM

Do you not like either/or questions? Was I reprimanded before for a question along the lines of this one:

Are you on an island in either Curry or Caltsop County?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 04:00 PM

I don't mind this question. If it can be answered yes or no it's fine by me.

It's no by the way, not in those counties.

Jetée 06-18-2009 04:07 PM

Last one for tonight: are you in Multnomah county?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 04:09 PM

No I'm not.

Shell 06-18-2009 04:56 PM

...is there a park there with a campground?

Tully Mars 06-18-2009 05:26 PM

Yes, there is a campground. For the record there wasn't one there last time I camped there. That was one of the appeals of the place to me.

BadNick 06-18-2009 06:16 PM

Are you at Collins Beach on Sauvie Island? ...and if so, nude or clothed?

Shell 06-18-2009 08:02 PM

...the excitement level of this game was just kicked up a notch :oogle:

No, but I have been there several times. And yes, when in Rome... Plus when I was working on my pilots license I was flying out of Kelso Wa. often we'd do a low fly by at that beach.

Go South Nick and head for the hills. As the t-shirt on one lady off the cruise ship said yesterday day "If you like my mountains you'll love my busch"

BadNick 06-19-2009 03:34 AM

how about Detroit Lake State Park?
