#1 in a park... thats it #2 --Ice/Frozen Water-- waterfall is straight back from Homer #3 --Neither cliff nor waters edge-- OK, but cliff+waters edge is waterfall, which you could hear #4 --going with the whole homer and football thingy here #5 --Branch-- Mississippi and MN Rivers branch here, --and the giant falls could be for those who haven't picked up the waterfall, or just a freudian slip?? #6 Gotta follow the CSNY reference... but wondering if it isn't ref--erring that we go next door to Hidden Falls, becasuse of no Crosby #7 --Battle Creek quick change...( I am 9 hours ahead of you... )
What am I missing? What am I adding too much too, hmmm... I can feel mistakes here, but can't tell why...
I'm still not sure about the siren calls/giant falls or the what's that you hear lines. My line of thought is a storm siren heralding a severe storm or tornado, which proceeds to blow down a large tree. I don't know if there've been any storms that have caused damage to Crosby's woods or not though.
What's that you hear? I'm thinking this should refer to a sound that you could hear now... and it seems to be something which may cause fear... I believe this leaves out airplane and train noise (wouldn't cause most of us to pause what we are doing) but the explanation, it was here when we moved in... who's "we", and who "moves in" to a regional park? Therefore, I'm assuming that this makes reference to people moving into the area or the state of Minnesota.
Just got back from Crosby. There's a crowd down there that's for sure. If tonights clue doesn't rule out crosby then that's where everyone will be tomorrow. Get there early if you want a parking spot, cause there's hardly any.
Last night Lina and I made some hot chocolate with Kahluah and threw it in a thermus before heading downtown. It was really tastey, but we didn't drink it all. I just went to clean it out, and the stuff is still warm inside! And not luke warm, really warm!
buzzgirl... for me, i think siren and storm too. and giant falls = tree. there's a tree along the path at crosby that is just HUGE. like a 4 foot diameter. that's what i take that. as for the sound and alarm, i think it's the cannons from ft. snelling.
the whats that you hear, have no fear ... before we moved in it was here thing: Ever listen to Joe Soucheray? He talks about this periodically in detail on his radio show throughout the year. I think this is one of the few things the Medallionators have picked up besides the rest of these noodles you all have done. Keep noodle'in it out!
Today he mentioned everyone thought it was "certain places" because of the Crosby, Stills and Nash song. He didn't mention where that certain place was... leading me to belive everyone is right about Crosby. Then he went on to say some stuff about a different Nash, sounded off the map.. disinfo.
But that is a brewery- which is alcohol produced via fermentation - a distillery has stills - which is the concentration of alcohol via removal of H20 via vapor
Where is that plant where they were making all the ethanol? not in the TC area?
Okay, my husband doesn't want me to hunt tomorrow night...wants me to be home.
I've been telling him for months that I would be pretty much unavailable throughout the hunt because I want to be dedicated. I don't do much for myself as a lot of you know I have 6 kids (so now you know the reason for the screen name)LOL. I do and I do for them and my hubby. So, when the hunt rolls around each year since I try to get out as much as possible. So, what do you with spouses who don't hunt? Do you have the same problem. I hate feelig quilty when I go out and hunt.
outta, my hubby doesn't hunt either, but we just have an understanding. He told the kids on clue 1, "you won't see your mom now for about 2 weeks, so just pretend she's not here, even when she is". I make sure the kids have dinner, put them to bed...and I'm out.
By now we all know that Vincent Bugliosi wrote Helter Skelter. He was also from Minnesota. But today's clue makes note of a "glove". The most famous glove I can think of is the OJ glove. Vincent Bugliosi also wrote a book on the OJ trial.
Two references to the same person. There has to more to this. He also won the "Edgar Allan Poe Award" twice. Poe, was also a "poet". This fits as well for clue 4.Â
In clue 5, there are references to "prize" and "helter skelter". Bugliosi won the Poe award for HS.
I have been thinking how this all ties together, but can't come up with a thing. Anyone got some idea's???
almost got in a fight for a spot.....guy thought i stole it from him.....what was stupid is there was 2 other spots......
then I went to bat for MAPPY...some idiot was handing out about 10 photo copies of HIS map to people walking into the woods from the EAST lot..... Almost got in a fight with him.....
but I think I know how AW feels...I had quite a few non-coolers ask me if I was KITCH....said they saw photo's and are lurkers.....
told them to post on here and say hi at least......
then I went to bat for MAPPY...some idiot was handing out about 10 photo copies of HIS map to people walking into the woods from the EAST lot..... Almost got in a fight with him.....
Why would they pass out a photo copy of his map of crosby? It's garbage and you can get better ones on the web. Still, very cool of you to go to bat for him it's BS that people pull that crap on a guy that's into the hunt just like them.
Regarding Eric's post. The only thing I can think of that he talks about a lot is, Our Mother Earth. Also, Joe wrote a book titled, Modern, Caring, Sensitive Male: A Curmudgeon Columnist Looks At Life. People also call in and discuss how many cars, mowers, and stuff with engines they own. They have a rating system for how many pistons or something they own, but I can't remember what they call that.
I have found a place in St. Paul where the eagle flys with the Dove. A stained glass window of Saint Paul's Episcopal Church..
From the website
The right medallion depicts Christ being baptized by John. The descending Dove; symbol of the Holy Spirit is directly above the clouds. The symbols in the background are the Sacrificial Knife at the peak of the lancet; beneath the medallion are the Waters of Life; a Baptismal Font is in the border. St. John is shown with his Book of Revelation and his emblem the Eagle. The tracery section contains the Anchor and Fish, symbolic of Salvation through Christ.
Well... this might be a stretch, but it sparked a memory of something I read a long time ago. Pierre "Pig's Eye" Parrant, St. Paul's first "official" settler, once used a cave in the Crosby area to store his ill-gotten hootch. I can't recall if the name of the cave was Carver's Cave or if it was Fountain Cave. I believe the cave was filled in or destroyed when Shepard Road was built.
I don't know if he actually distilled booze in the cave or if he just stored it there.
After seeing some of the clues from previous years and what they referred to, I have come to the conclusion that there is NO such thing as a "bad guess!"
They make sense. I just feel more inclined the other way....( I feel like a follower today...)
Kinda funny, I am 9 hours ahead of you guys here, but a day behind on the clues....
I miss my sparklies, too. But, for the good o'the Crew, I'll forego'um.
I still think Battle Creek-Indian Mounds Regional Park. The prize earned? They have moto-X ("Have No Fear"), and x-country races.Â
I'm not convinced Crosby. Too many "no Crosbys", ya know?
Zephy, the 'CCO guy said about chew, "He doesn't discuss the Clues much, does he?"
I said, "No. He's pretty closed-mouth about them. But he puts up a good front."
ROFLOLPMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just at Crosby for over 3 hours. Many cars, but the park is so large in 3 hours I only saw about 20 people !!!!!!
I'LL BE BACK !!!!
Â
I have too much time spent slogging to ensure I don't double post the same old, same old all of th etime...
I sooooo miss my broadband connection.... OTS, ya thinks ya could hook a buddy up??
I want to consolidate and review before I post them... coming soon...
That's why we're here, Zephy. Sos everbuddy's got sumplace to go to noodle and discuss. Thank gods you found your way here.
I wonder if OTiS will let me take you to BC?????
Hi Umpire! Umpire is my son-in-law. :)
About 20 min ago, Joe was taunting treasure hunters by playing Love the One You're With and saying it is a Stills song and there is no Stills park.
Were we on the news at noon on channel 4?
So sumbuddy knows ittiz not a CSN&Y song... That tells me The Clue Writer does, too. So, no Crosby!
Yeah, yeah. I know. Rubber room for me.
Hi, Umpire!
And Buzzygirl, too! Welcome to you both.
Nope, not at noon.
But they had a woman on who has every Carnival button since 1886!
Don't tell Scribe! She'll mug the woman!
What are the Vegas odds this year Jake will find the Medallion?Â
#1 in a park... thats it
#2 --Ice/Frozen Water-- waterfall is straight back from Homer
#3 --Neither cliff nor waters edge-- OK, but cliff+waters edge is waterfall, which you could hear
#4 --going with the whole homer and football thingy here
#5 --Branch-- Mississippi and MN Rivers branch here,
--and the giant falls could be for those who haven't picked up the waterfall, or just a freudian slip??
#6 Gotta follow the CSNY reference... but wondering if it isn't ref--erring that we go next door to Hidden Falls, becasuse of no Crosby
#7 --Battle Creek quick change...( I am 9 hours ahead of you... )
What am I missing? What am I adding too much too, hmmm... I can feel mistakes here, but can't tell why...
Umpire, Kenny's trying to call you on your cell. Call him at home please. If you don't know the number, it's still under Ted's name.
(and for the record, it is not a slam... I just need the money)
:)

I like Crosby. I think I'll be out there asap.
meeting at Rockin Lobster tonight NOT Great Waters -at least thats what I heard and thats where Ill be.
I just had another noodle.
*Stills*
Not the singer - the equiptment you use to produce alcohol.
tell me - are there any distilleries within line sight of any parks?
as a matter of fact, summit brewery is on montreal just after elway.
yes me2 go to the rockin lobster...
thats where EVERYONE is going...
(makes sure she isn't looking before sneaking off to GW)
The Camo Crew has requested the presence of the Cooler Crew at Rockin' Lobster. Should be a fun night. Tomorrow we go back to Great Waters.
But that is a brewery- which is alcohol produced via fermentation - a distillery has stills - which is the concentration of alcohol via removal of H20 via vapor
Where is that plant where they were making all the ethanol? not in the TC area?

Zephy, the 'CCO guy didn't mean posting here. He was talking about the cardboard you! Get it? "Closed mouth," "Puts up a good *front*"?????

For what thats worth...
Someone named Stu just called in to Joe about the clues saying clue #6 is a red herring.

Talking about phoney clues! lol Saying the clues are leading you away from the park and it's in Irvine Park.Â
Hope you guys are listening, cuz this guy's a nut case!!
