It is too risky to put it in Rice. They would have to be WAY to careful about the clues. If a clue so much as gave someone a thought it might be in, around, or under a sculpture I gurantee that the sculpture would be broken, tipped over, or both.

LLkisses and I think it's there but, who knows maybe maybe not we all aren't for sure yet and this next clue could prove us wrong or right

Newell is a little park across the street from the ball field where the Saints play and is surrounded by lots of trees. Its tough to see anything from Newell.

the only reason i started thinking about linwood is because i was driving north on 35 and from the freeway you can see a steeple of somesort and to the right of those there are 2 watertowers right next to each other don't know if you can see them from the park tho thats the only problem....but i know that you can see the schmidt smokestack from there

you know there is always a few people who think differently and that gcould be a good thing to open up minds and maybe then boom everything will fit in place even if its not the park and a different one .

just a message to green, i saw she was pretty upset about not getting the paper.. But the clipped clues don't have to come from the paper, it said they could be photocopies or from the internet..

You can see Schmidts and there is a Highrise down on Montreal that you can see from Linwood

Looking out the window, there is no way that it's in Harriet. The consruction company would not want people climbing on equipment, etc.

okay it was a big blurb... It says, no purchase necessary to win. Photcopies, handwritten and/or online print outs of the published clues will be accepted.

Hard to eliminate any of the large parks, Como, Phalen, Highland, or Mounds, at this point

jeloba

Well I know for me , we have already been together for 6 years, 2 kids, never had any money to get married until this year... So now happily married without the proper honeymoon... Going to Georgia in March, but are taking the kids with they are so excited to go see the ocean, that is all they talk about on a daily basis...

I like Como because you should stay away from where golfers cavort and the picnic area is on the opposite side of the park, it has grills, and shelters to get out of the rain. Any thoughts?

It doesn't have to be in ST. Paul, anywhere in RAMSEY COUNTY!

What about that park off of 694 and dale where they water ski!
