no takers on the "pooled resources"... thought I would ask, likewise for tonight if anyone is interested. I have a feeling the next few clues won't detail the park, but where the medallion is located in the park.

Hi,

Clue #1 Just to cold to be digging!

Clue #2 Don't destroy, or we will find you, and you can pay for it?

Clue #3 Circular thinking and road repairs, better not be driving down a one way the wrong way.

Clue #4 East and west one way is always the wrong way.

Clue #5 Peace it together and the man of steel will save you

Scribe...Marydale: the "linking" could be MARYland ave and DALE st linked together to be Marydale. also, Foundry park nearby (fettle is forging medal); June: Rose avenue; there are some interesting named business nearby: "Jefferson Smurffit"(for real), Doody Mechanical (fettle again); some kind of Dairy Queen....

I know,South Paul,but I just can't figure the last clue in there or any of the others.I also have a firm belief we are not looking in a park per se this year,the would have said if we were.Also have a problem with the bank referrences there.
