Clue #6

 



Spirits make such a racket rattling chains
They like to play games with their remains
Freighting around their lovely bones
Persevering through the unknown
Forgiveness they yearn for
But Venus they desire more

you got both the use of "Rackets" AND "Venus" its got to do with tennis courts  & The pioneer man could be the founder of Ma Press.

 

Plus isn't the gateway to heaven "St. Peter's Gate" I think we should look near St. Peter street

I still think it's Mounds maybe by the swings.

KC0GRN

Cherokee or Mounds, that's my guess.

I don't think Me2 would put it in Cherokee that would be like me putting it in Mounds.

goodevening -sorry guys-I had quite the problems over here-after I posted the clue I got another AOL.exe error and I just couldnt take it any more-I had to walk away from the computer! seams to be moving quickly now- I know Kids had trouble with the forum like I did as well-

Good luck out there! have fun ...with out ME! :(

Clue Master

Is there a playground, baseball or tennis courts at SH?

I liked that place right off the bat because it fits the theme so well but discarded it after the swings reference because I don't remember there being anything like that there.  If there is, that would be perfect with the stream and 'ghostly' rock formation down in the valley.

aaalllll day ;p

we drove past your work on the way to the creative memories party and then stopped at the Taco Bell by you on the way home---funny...I always thought about the funeral parlor across the street as a connection to a friend of the family who lives down the block on Nevada-her last name is WULFF -just like the funeral parlor-wellllll, today I got creeped out because it clicked that it is located directly across the street from food! ewwwwwww! and I eat there a couple times a year.

Me and Shaggs stopped at yer store like 2 mondays ago.... there was 2 guys workin... we were hoping that you would be, so we could be checking out and say "Sup ninja?" and then we figured you would freak out and want a picture of us with no makeup, and we'd have to run.

Damn! I missed ya!!!  I think I was on vacation, I usually work monday nights too.

Thats usually the day that we go and cruise and hit up a buncha stores and malls and what-not before goin back to Shaggy's place to watch Monday Night Raw.

mondays are usually pretty slow in there, it's a good day to stop in and say hi, not too much else to do.
