Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

Mr. Mason is correct, the orange coloring show up when you boil lobsters. When they are caught they are green-ish black.

2) I am as tall as a castle
but as light as the air.
yet 110 men cannot pick me up.
What am I?

3) I am a six letter word of the english language. When I am written in lower case I am easy to pronounce, yet I am impossible to pronounce if I am written in upper case. What word am I? Hint: Griswold knows the answer.

Ohhh, I thought the whole word had to be written in uppercase?

Great answer to #2, Geddes!
