Here are all the hints in one place. I hope you folks have the time and interest to look for some of them.

Well it's time I got to work. I'm getting the White's Easter Eggs out and I hope this year will be a little tougher. Last year I used a lot of photos and pretty much painted a huge X over every hiding place. So I'm starting off with just hints this time.
First look for a small town on the Covered Bridge map.
The name is the same as the landmark you seek.
As you stand in the drive and look across at the Mill your guiding Star will you see.
It points the way to a very old tree that is almost as old as the bridge, and half way between is the treasure you seek.
Yeah the poetry sucks so sue me.
The White's people tell me that most of the coins from last year were never returned. Either people never found them or kept them for themselves. One of the ones I hid was never reported found so I wonder how many are still out there.
Good luck.
The first egg was in Parke County and now we are in Vigo. Remember if you find one of them post a picture of you and your find.
This small town was a good day's ride from Terre Haute for the first settlers. Then the National Road made things a bit better.
Once it was recommended as a good place to "Stop and Rest", and almost everyone knows the name if not the exact town limits.
Find the old school yard and take a seat to watch an old time game that just will not go away. If you are in the right place it's just a short pitch away.

Ok, here we go again. This time we are in Vermillion County. In a town with the most famous hill in the county. There really is a lot of history in this small town. The Court House, the old county jail, and the library among other sites. As you visit these sites you will see a place just for the young and young at heart. Then, if you know your trees you can set on the large root of the Cypress tree and watch the net as the game goes on. If you make it to this seat you can almost touch the prize. One last hint if trees aren't your thing. The Cypress, like the Sycamore, has a shaggy looking bark.

This is the last of the Easter eggs and I hope you all have a good time. I'm sorry about the delay but I do have something of a life.
This time we return to Clay county and the town that is one of the oldest in the county and once was home to the county seat. These folks take pride even now in their old settlers and like to party in their honor.
Find the bandstand at the party grounds and look at the crack in the floor. Then look at the door. In between the band the that wall is the treasure you seek.
Remember to post if you find one of them.
