goldenboy-i have to agree with you on that one. it is a possibility, but still too early to pinpoint a park or start digging.

You guys are focusing too much on the word "foul"

"if your MOOD is CLOUDY and FOUL"

for opposites attract maybe it means this

Cloudy> ground foul> fair

fairground maybe maybe not

Hey whoever said Linwood might have a good idea. There is a picnic area. You can see the NSP smokestack and a grain elevator.

my gut is still telling me highland although i have no idea how this clue fits into there other than a bathroom. opposites attract if your mood is cloudy and foul. In other words, you are feeling low. The opposite of low.....HIGH. HIGHLAND!!!!!!!!

I'm going to bed, still too vague!!!

However my dreams might bring forth some new ideas!

I'm going to keep a pad and pencil next to my bed!!

MedallionStallion

Yeah, Crosby. There aren't any towers in view though eh?

I like that opposites theorey: lower and upper afton . . .

Kiwi what do you think about Rice now huh???

Thu, 01/27/2000 - 12:33 AM Permalink
Phillip Diskerud

Well, plain and simple I do not like this clue... Does not help much, unless you are thinking opposits... Cloudy= Sunny Foul = Fair

Foul and Cloudy both in clue #5

upper and lower aren't really opposites though . . .

I still think there's a chance you have to let me do some research and then I can tell you for sure.

Well, I'm gonna hang this up and sleep on the whole thing. '
