Well everyone, we are about to do something here on TheWilli.com that we’ve never done before! It involves history, research, mystery and code-breaking. It incorporates fact and fiction woven together in completely new (and hopefully enjoyable) ways.

Immediately some of you JT400 veterans might be smelling a treasure hunt – but there is no treasure to be had. Others among you may suspect a historical fiction novel in the making – but alas, this story has no specific plotline, nor a tidy ending. Instead, it is a story and hunt that you uncover…. And the amazing, little-known history that you’ll encounter, and the fun you’ll have learning it will be your reward!

Welcome to the Story of the Land!

The Story of the Land is:

• …A fun way to learn some little known history about our new area
• …Meant to be enjoyable, somewhat challenging, but not frustrating
• …An activity that any and all are welcomed to participate in!

The Story of the Land is definitely NOT:

• …Anything near as complex as the JT400 (please don’t compare…!)
• …Anything near as hard as the JT400
• …Something that requires a lot of time (remember, this is supposed to be fun!)

So are you ready? This is how to get started! (In 3 easy steps! )
