I think the stills reference, Vino, is another Crosby, STILLS and Nash clue. It's all over clue 6. "YOUNG woman or man" , "GNASH YOUR TEETH"

So, wheres the ski trail map?

didn't pigs eye area have one? I don't have my history books here at work - I'll have to look.

Pigs eye is named after Pig's Eye Parrant, see the following link... found it after the 2003 hunt. For fun... look up Ann Bilansky, Stanislaus Bilansky, and John Walker.... sorry, reminiscing...

He was a fur trapper turned moonshiner
...Here you go green.. one for your park.... just down the hill(?)

Says the PP might be in deep trouble this year because they're eliminating people with handicaps and they'll be sued.

The caves by Chair-O-Key were used to store booze...

Thanks, Zephy! But I still can't the the dove/eagle thighy. Unless Dove bars are made by Borden????  I doubt it.

Hail the flashlight king.

Hey Green. What do you think about the song "Love the one you're with" lyrics?

"Love The One You're With"
If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who
You're talking to
Concentration slips away
Cos your baby is so far away

[Chorus]
And there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one
You love honey
Love the one you're with

Don't be angry don't be sad
Don't sit crying over good
Times you had
There's a girl, right next to you
And she's just waiting for something
To do

[Chorus]

Turn your heartache right into joy
She's a girl and you're a boy
So get it together make it nice
And you won't need any more advice

And that is the area where carvers cave was, where the Kaposia village of the Mdewakanton Sioux lived. They are the ones who had told Carver about the cave, and they lived just downstream from Daytons Bluff, where today stands---Indians Mounds Park...

That was my original thought on the 2nd half of clue 3... and why I still keep my ears open when green is talking... wanting something to fit... But for now, I'll just be happy with Crosby...

They just announced on WCCO 5:00 news that they would be "interviewing" a guy who keeps his clues very quiet and close to the vest, and who puts up a good front.  Showed a quick glimpse of Zeph's cardboard doppelganger.

yeah - there were 5 or 6 breweries that did that - cause it provides you with a constant temperature - and then the beer won't throw tartrates etc. - back before pasturization it was a major thing.

ok - I'm outta here for a while.. going on a *date* hope I can stop noodling long enough so he doesn't think I am a freak. BBS

Outta, I read about your issue with the spouse and kids.  I have the same gig going on except half the kids (8, 5, and 2).  They all basically think I'm nuts for torturing my mind and body year in and year out.  What can I say I love a good hunt!  Gotta go with your heart as I always say.

What's the WCCO bit, I haven't heard?

If you want to make your husband a hunter just bring him home the 10 thousand dollar check and say this could have been half yours,lol.

The wife and I were down at Crosby for the picture deal and saw a few people, Tim, Green, Treasure chest, Scribe and Allison to name a few.  Wish I would have introduced myself to everyone but will do so,  if the weather cooperates, at the rehash bash.

This is THE reason not to have kids and a spouse. I can go out whenever I want. Nothing holding me back. Can't you get like a Kennel Service that will cage and feed your family while you hunt?

well finally back from work.  Depending on the rest of the weekend clues/hunting we will probably be down Sunday night to hunt and hang out at the PP with everyone.  Gotta make the family some dinner.

I am open to the idea of no Crosby.  It would make for a wicked cool hunt, but, how?  How at Clue 6 could everything have only led us to what park it's not in?  That is hard to swallow, as is the idea that those clues don't lead to crosby....oh well, out there, digging and loving it...and what a cool and funky woods eh?
