Spent the day at Tena Bar, today. Got to meet Richard Fazio, who was the nicest guy! He even shared his FBI letter. I was pretty shocked at how close I actually live to the money find. All these years....just right there at my front door! Thanks for the invite EU! (sorry, not sure why these photos are so large!)

Reformatted photos....Shutter

not sure why these photos are so large

When you post an image in HTML and the file is large it will exceed the bandwidth causing the photo to be over sized.

Some of the photo's were over 500kb in size. I copied them and converted them so they would fit.

When you click on a photo you have the option to enlarge it depending on it's size by hitting the diagonal arrows to the left of the X where you would click to clear the image and go back to the post.

I see they changed the name Tina/Tena...

What I love most about the photos is that you can see that the Tena bar sign has been updated. It now reads “Tena” as opposed to the former “Tina.”

Also, a lot has changed immediately around the money find spot. The Fazio have done some work to mitigate erosion which is good.

BTW, I did get some samples for Tom Kaye to look at.

Someone will have to ask Richard Fazio. My guess is that the sign was repaired due to the years of abuse from the NW weather. Or, maybe Cooper himself decided to return the beach name to the original "Tena."

Al was pretty adamant about the "Tina," back in the day. "It's what we've always called it," he told me when I asked him about the "Tena" usage elsewhere.

"Tell" Al to look at his "Tell Tena" deed abstract history! Are we actually going through this again!?  ???

I spent 6 hours on Tena Bar yesterday, a lot of that time looking at it at a forensic level. The result of this additional research has led me to further refine the location of the money find spot. The new location is about 15 feet northwest of the previous location I identified. The new coordinates are: 45.718591, -122.759434.

This spot is extremely precise. I suspect it's within 5 feet of the actual spot if not right on the money. It was fine tuned by locating what I think is likely the only surviving tree from 1980. Of course, the gravel road and some other landmarks played a part too.

Any chance he misspelled his name which was Coper not Cooper? A 'coper' is a horse trader dealer.

Was the hijacking another date? In another State and time?

Any new evidence Coper was a drug addict/ dealer ?
