Dantom del Byondo continues his bike adventure in the Pacific Northwest. According to today's postcard,

Day 2: North Bonneville, WA to Bingen, WA
Day 3: Bingen, WA to Maryhill, WA




(click to enlarge)


Nobody got the exact locations this time, so consolation points will go to the closest geographic matches:

Day 2: The Dalles, OR (about 8 miles), Aaiko
Day 3: Arlington, OR (about 48 miles), Aaiko

Honorable mention: Gumshoe guessed Goldendale, WA on day 2. Tom arrived in Maryhill one day later, and Google Maps tells me that Maryhill and Goldendale are the same. Just a day off also gets a consolation point.

I knew it was in that area somewhere... There's just so many places you can stop. And Gumshoe, you got that guess from me! Heh.

31337+5150-15 R061 is printed at the bottom of the card. I would assume this was printed on when run though the postal system.

I find this interesting because I can't seem to find any reference to a 31337 zip code in the internet, but 31337+5150 is a zipcode printed onto the card by the system.

Perhaps it is just by chance that the zipcode is 31337(eleet) and there is printed on it 31337+5150-15(eleet siso is?). Just figured I would note that.

I agree with Dark Shadow Ninja, but since I doubt I could go with his guess, I'll guess:
Day 4: June 13th, 2006, Toppenish, WA.
Day 5: June 14th, 2006, Naches, WA.
Maybe he wants to visit Mount Rainier before he leaves the state... v_v </sarcasm>
[EDIT]
If Dark Shadow Ninja is right, would I get some sort of consolation even though I forced myself to choose something else so that it wouldn't seem like I just copied him?

Well, for the sake of this contest lets it is, dispite the fact that it is, by all means that I can tell, a fake zip. I only dwell on this because I seem to remember making a big hubub about the picture hanging on Dan's wall in the last contest.

Everyone played it off as nothing important, but come to find out it was the key to releasing Dan onto the interent, or restoring that guys memory, or something. Anywho, it was basicly the answer right in front of us, and I said it, but nobody believed me.

So I am attempting to do the same thing with this contest, but it really does seem to be a totally different style of contest. I am just puzzled by the lack of clues. The only clues we have so far is that he mentions going out of state AND out of country.
