Coming back to the dark side......Gwen and I found a Halloween sack in the woods yesterday! Complete with a sealed cup of coffee underneath it. What a lark in the park....empty. So many parks with east west and Indian connections. Not feeling grounded anywhere yet. Anyway, I am still looking for the green donut.... :pbpt:
Well, I can find a couple rhymes, but that's about it. I can see "pack - track" and "mire - tire", but all those other words....it will be interesting to see the real version
One gets the feeling that there is much in these clues that nod to the election.
mire
/ˈmī(ə)r/
noun
1. a stretch of swampy or boggy ground.
    2. a situation or state of difficulty, distress, or embarrassment from which it is hard to extricate oneself: "he has been left to squirm in a mire of new allegations" synonyms: mess, difficulty, plight, predicament, tight spot
Maybe tomorrow's clue will put these together in some form or another.
Feel free to share ideas. There is often a thought that you might give something away, but in reality, everyone has their own ideas and will pick and choose what makes sense to them - and we might be in 10 different parks until closer to the end of the hunt.
Ancient Lake Como, where Native American bands would travel through on their way to hunting/fishing grounds. Carousel has music that plays all day, while you take a spin, with or without your kin. Conservatory dome, near the frog pond (mire). Before you get too excited, keep in mind that I was still at Harriet Island when Clue 12 came out last year. Everything fit so perfectly!
Keller Lake was a slough until they dredged it into a lake almost 100 years ago. All the dredged material was used to make a dome shaped island along the eastern shore. The island has a circular path. Red herrings abound. The clue writer is getting better and better.
It seems the first two lines of clue 4 are trying to say where it is not. You'll be "off the track", but what is "caught below the tire"??
The domes in St Paul and political mire sure are appealing clues - where else in Ramsey county are there any domes, either manmade or natural? Maybe that can narrow things down.
A new clue will appear daily through Thursday, February 2, 2017, unless the medallion is found prior to that date. Read the daily clues to search for the Pioneer Press medallion hidden on public land in Ramsey County. The medallion will not be hidden on the State Capitol grounds, at Como Zoo & Conservatory, under any skating surface, on a golf course, under or on any artificial turf surface or at any construction site.
Vadnais Heights is in Ramsey Count. It borders the cities of Shoreview, Little Canada, White Bear Lake, Maplewood, North Oaks, and Gem Lake. Interstate 35E, Interstate 694, U.S. Highway 61, and County Highway 96 are four of the main routes in Vadnais Heights. Was named after Jean Vadnais. Among the first settlers, Vadnais and his family made a home for themselves on the southeast side of the lake.The French Canadian families Bibeau, Vadnais, Garceau, and Morrisette first settled the area now known as Vadnais Heights in the 1840s. It became part of White Bear Township in 1858, when Minnesota became a state. Yawn for that location.

Brian: Peter, those are Cheerios
It was a real good burger too.
Might be more of a musical band (play)? And could "spin" be a record (vinyl)?
We have about 30 minutes to the scrambled clue. Wonder what gorse, toodle loo, ancient band stuff is coming tonight.
pack the track off hunting your is
tire caught below if gets the it
planned you be just as in itÂ’ll hand
find mire by the you the dome when
demo reminds me of Chair-o-key
We will never forget those.
No demo, but there is a dome. :sillygrin:
Off the track is your hunting pack
If it gets caught below the tire
It'll be in hand just as you planned
When you find the dome by the mire
More like clueless and in the dark.
But you wouldn't find the dome in the mire - unless this is about politics.

Just saving this, has a feel although nothing to really match it to
Hope it starts coming together.
I am heading for the sheets.
Goodnight and SCDs!
Maybe you won't read it, but you may be near tv/radio...

conservatory dome
maybe wrapped in a piece of the old metrodome roof
lots of domed indoor ice rinks
