Or am I dreaming again?

Howdy, Ares! Howdy, me2!

Uhhmmm... I don't know. It seems to me it was really vizabubble. I'm thinking it was that *one* that that *guy* made - a fake one, but looked just like the real Med.

This ringing any bells with anybuddy?

JOE!!!

I talked to Caro (Carolyn Robertson) 2day. They don't know the dates yet of the 2004 Hunt, but should know soon.

I called to find out sos I can put in for vacation...

I don't think eight months in advance is thinking of The Hunt too soon!!! :D

Hey Green, we just got done with Marley's hunt. I suppose since we're having hunts we have the hunt on the mind too.

Hay, Kids! Pops was telling me about Marley's Hunt. He and I (Pops and me, not Marley and me) were doing some looking in Newell.

Speaking o'Newell... Pops says The Med was found in - as in *inside* - the drainpipe to the west o'the lover's swing. Anybuddy know if this is true or not?

Who won Marley's Hunt? My CONGRATS to them! :D

I hadn't heard about that. Maybe others had. And thanks Green, I found one, finally.

WOW, Kids! That's great! You've been pretty close to The Med... Maybe next year will be your year...

Hey Kids - good job on finding the med!

Any word on a rehash bash?

I would hope that next year is my year for the BIG ONE. You would think with all this practice we'd get it no problem.

Dawg, I think we're going to have something after Memorial Day weekend, probably during the week (like a Tuesday or Wednesday).

Ordell?

My favorite Google image search result for "Ordell."

Nasty and Ordell Braase, Dec. 1997

see, and i'm still trying to figure out who ordell is.

I'm sure they love that.

Dad's nuts.

That actually adds to the enjoyment factor.

power's out here :(. more than about 40 minutes of this and i have computers to shut down.

Huh. Power's on here, and you and I are practically across the street from one another.

we're on different feeders from the forest st. sub. (or the one at 94 and mounds for that matter).

power was out on desoto as well but it's back on now, any one know why it went out there is no storm it's not even windy?

Big fight down town in the town square by the foot locker about 50 peopel what a crazy night.

I was sound asleep and the power went out. I cant sleep when it is silent so I get up and get dressed and take a walk around the block to see whats up. The power comes back on and now I'm wide awake messin around on the web.

P.S. dawg and I brought the cat and one of the dog's to the vet for there shots oh was that fun. the cat just about tore my arm to shreds trying to get her back in her carry box after the shots. then we went to dawgs parents house for a barbecue for some relatives from Sweden. That was a good time her moms cousin Gun is an artist we had a good time showing our work to each other. She painted us a picture of some flowers vary good work.

i'm wondering how long its gonna be before i can't sleep when its silent. i've got the computer's running all within about 15 feet of me, with many fans in them. according to xcel, a feeder went out somewhere.

goodmorning. um, what is that woman kissing? is that what it looks like?

you're easy to put up with, j.

Just watched the Wedding Singer for the billionth time!
why do I keep watching it? It is sooo funny but not worth multiple viewings! Out to enjoy the sunshine - bye

ANOTHER HUNT...

WORTH 1 MILLION DOLLARS!

Best Clue: Lost along a North Carolina highway 1962!

CONCORD, N.H. (May 26) - A nationwide bounty hunt is under way - with a $1 million reward. The target: a 90-year-old nickel.

After being born of questionable, some say clandestine, circumstances, five 1913 Liberty Head nickels surfaced in the 1920s. Two are in private collections, two are in museums, but the whereabouts of the fifth has confounded collectors for at least 40 years.

''There's a little bit of gimmick to it,'' concedes Paul Montgomery, president of Bowers and Merena Galleries of Wolfeboro, N.H., which is offering the reward. ''But it's all about trying to find the coin.''

The Liberty Head Nickel was minted from 1883 to 1912, when it was replaced by the Indian or Buffalo Nickel.

Five Liberty nickels, however, were minted illegally in 1913, possibly by a mint official. They were never placed into circulation and for many years were considered illegal to own because they were not a regular issue.

In 1996, Bowers and Merena auctioned one of the 1913 nickels for $1.4 million, the first coin to sell for more than $1 million. It is because of that price that the company is offering at least $1 million for the missing nickel.

''Everybody in the industry would love to see it,'' said Montgomery.

As one story goes, the coin may have been owned by a North Carolina dealer killed in a car crash in 1962. Part of the mystery is a theory that the dealer was carrying the coin to a buyer named Reynolds.

People have searched the roadside, said Lawrence Lee, curator of the American Numismatic Association Money Museum, which owns one of the nickels.

''He was killed on his way there,'' Lee said. ''Did the Reynolds' family actually get it? Was it in the car wreck?''

Beth Deisher, editor of Coin World magazine in Sidney, Ohio, said a nickel was recovered from the wreckage, but it was not one of the original five. The date had been altered.

The dealer ''claimed to have access to the genuine, through a client named Reynolds,'' she said. ''We believe he had an altered date coin he often carried with him and put on display.''

Lee said many have claimed to have the missing coin.

''There are lots of counterfeits,'' he said. ''We have maybe 50 examples in the museum.''

Lee believes publicity from the reward offer will get people to start looking for it again, and maybe it will show up in an estate or a grandmother's attic.

He figures if the owner knows about the coin, ''they couldn't resist, sooner or later, bragging to somebody or selling it to somebody.''

We had a nice Memorial. Spent the day in the park celebrating the girls' fourth birthday (which is actually Wednesday), did some yardwork and now I'm brewing a Cream Ale.

Hope everybody else had a happy holiday.

thanks frosti we had a good holiday, I don't want it to end. just got a bicycle and went for a ride man am I out of shape I made it to Phalen and turned around and went back home my legs feel like rubber. Bet it's been 17 years since I was on one of those things it was a lot of fun though.

We did a 22 mile ride on Sunday out by Marine on St Croix. Probably not what you wanted to hear. ;-)

Give me some time frosti. My plan is to ride every morning before work till I get back in to shape. I noticed on the 2003 PP hunt that I was way out of shape I could not run up and down the hills like I could when I was younger.

Had a great time up nort der over the holiday weekend. Topped it off with the fireworks downtown. Did anybody else catch them? They were pretty good. We thought that they were having the finale at least 4 times but they kept on going. Cool!
Hope everyone had a great weekend as well. It's about time we got decent weather for Memorial Day.

Hmmm, Gemini twins...

finally a nice memorial weekend! very relaxing without the kids up there, but now it's back to the old grind stone :( someone broke into the liquor store friday night, I guess they cut the phone lines outside and climbed up on the roof and went through the heating ducts. made a mess out of the place and took quite a bit of booze and cigarettes and a little money. needless to say the cameras will be coming this week! we have been waiting 2 years for him to put them in!

that makes 2 of us, ll. someone relieved me of the burden of trying to justify a new stereo deck for my car sunday nite or monday morning by removing the existing deck, and leaving me with a nice pile of glass.

Hmmm, Gemini twins...

With a Gemini father...

That sucks ares! I was lucky, I don't own the store so It's not my stuff they got,

ESD- My thighs hurt just reading your biking post ;p

LL-there have been over 22 breakin's in Northern Mpls greenhouses where the phone lines were cut-so the alarms couldn't call out- maybe same guys??

It was a nice Memorial weekend wasn't it?
Fireworkswere amazing- very impressed.
Mellaluca is trying to make a big name for themselves here me thinks.

could be, whoever it is has to be pretty small to fit through the heating ducts.

It was a nice Memorial weekend wasn't it?

nice? only nice?

Cool, I'll be heading out there this weekend again to take more pictures for the gallery I got setup. I'll probably stop by Phalen again as well. I bet that hole in the lake is getting bigger.
