Interesting that "take a break" is from the musical Hamilton with a lyric "a lake in a nearby park". Muses make me think of women. A lake with a woman's name, perhaps? That would fit with tackle. I also think of the Kit-Kat bar and "taking a break". Another word for muse is "mouses". Cat and mouse game for sure! Happy Hunting!

Thanks Bob! Now the question is, does it mean anything at all? You have two days to decide.
A tackle is something you can do in soccer. It must be on Allianz Field! lol

Sorry to be so absent. I've been furiously working on getting the Scavenger Hunts together for the Winter Carnival and haven't had much time to think about the Medallion Hunt, but I will be at the Pre-Dig on Saturday (which is happening again this year at Joseph's Grill in St. Paul starting at 6pm in the private room). Since I am officially part of the Winter Carnival now, I've given up actually looking for the Medallion. The PP runs the Medallion Hunt and it is no longer part of the Winter Carnival so I have nothing to do with it, but I still think it would look bad to a lot of people if I happened to find it. But I'm still interested in helping one of you find it! So I'll be posting the clues here as well as any thoughts I have on them (but not thoughts that other people tell me in confidence). I think I was pretty far off last year so my help isn't always helpful, but usually someone here gets it right!

Subject: Re: [theallisonwonderland] Happy New Year! Happy Treasure Hunt 2023!   Chello all, I'll still be doing my CMPPP again this year. We'll be selling picks at the CCPDG on the 21st.   Not sure about AWs PPP but I'm sure he'll chime in soon. 
Oh, and I think it'll be in the NW corner of the county.......

Good luck everyone!   Today's dumping definitely allowed us to gain some practice anyway. Heh

We've got a ton of snow now, heavy and wet, and soon to be rock hard ice, to keep the treasure hidden until spring. Any ideas when the PP will drop the puck/hide the medallion? Any Park picks contest this year? It hasn't been in Phalen for a long time. That's my first choice.
Hope all you hunters and noodlers got some Christmas gifts that will help you find that treasure.
Let's Go!

The Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt is part of the St. Paul Winter Carnival every year. While the prize can only go to one winner, The Allison Wonderland is dedicated to the community spirit of treasure hunting. Here, not only will you find out about the Pre-Dig Gig, the Rehash Bash, and various other social events, but we also discuss the clues here in a team effort to decipher them (albeit not always successfully). This is a place to discuss ideas respectfully, report on what's happening "on the ground", and provide each other with useful information. This is a public group so expect that anything posted will be seen by everyone.
