The Frederick Douglass House
Made by voteprime
The clue: This famous abolitionist ran a virtual boarding house out of his palace. How many bedrooms are shown to tourists? What is the posted completion date of its current renovation project? Answer these questions and find out the operating hours of the museum and the number of windows on the second floor. In case you're ever doing a race of your own and want to save time, the answers are: Frederick Douglass 5 bedrooms 2/14/2007 The house is open 9am - 4pm from 10/16 through 4/14 and 9am - 5pm from 4/15 through 10/15. It really is a nice house. Too bad we had to burn it down so no one else in the race could find it. This was also our second run-in with a team who was just behind us.This was the moment that things started to feel more serious. Now, about those windows... 2 in this photo plus the bay window.

There were police officers of every description everywhere, including K-9 units, though who was actually in attendance, I cannot say. They were certainly singing away inside that tent, though.
