it could be too soon to identify the park.. they want it to last longer than last year... especially for 10g's...

harriet would have been a nice touch with all of the refurbishing (but maybe they were afraid of destroying what they just built...)

until the playing part, i thought it could even be the capitol...

has to be a park with "playing" capabilities...

since this is the 50th treasure hunt, and we could use circular thinking, could we be back where it all started (at highland?)

I like the idea of the rides at como but is that off base?

I think rides at como is to easy

Dickaroo

There's some sledding, but sledding and "riding around" seems like a bit of a stretch.......

Fri, 01/26/2001 - 12:47 AM Permalink
Jake Jeckyl

They did not!

Fri, 01/26/2001 - 12:47 AM Permalink
Cheryl Straight

you could ride around on a golf cart on the golf course... but it is not on a golf course (clue 2) but that may be the "base" you move off of....

Fri, 01/26/2001 - 12:48 AM Permalink
wrightwinger

the sledding is by the round water towers

Fri, 01/26/2001 - 12:49 AM Permalink
Jake Jeckyl

YES THEY DID!! scroll up and read it!

Gonna find it

There are essentially only 2 parks in St Paul where you can ride"around" ...... Como & Phalen.....& both have ball fields, statues, golf courses, private grounds, lots of space, etc......

the only other place that may even relate to all clues is perhaps....Ft. Snelling.

wright, have you submitted any new work since the last time we talked?

Fri, 01/26/2001 - 12:53 AM Permalink
wrightwinger

when was the last time we talked?

Gonna find it

Isn't it ironic Dickaroo, all other years they try to make you think it's at Como when it's not...

Whats up Shaggs, wheres V.J. at?

Fri, 01/26/2001 - 12:57 AM Permalink
Cheryl Straight

como does seem like the likely suspect...

unfortunately (?), the fort isn't in the city of st. paul (clue 2) if it could be in ramsey county, then fairgrounds would be a good hunch as well...

ok...I'mm Noodling...on Tuesday I was talking and went to Oscar johnson Ice Arena...a 'sizable' PARK-ing lot in Energy PARK....on DeCourcey CIRCLE....just EAST of Newell and south of como...Oscar was a highly decorated sargeant (METTLE) and...."TOES" = figure skating", "PLAYING"=hockey(skating), "FIGURE"=skating. THOUGHTS????

Anyone think it is strange how some of the clues have bold printing for the first letters and some of them do not? I think I am way reaching here, but I have tried to mix and match to see if they spelled something... Just odd to me that some are and some are not. Ideas?

Fri, 01/26/2001 - 12:59 AM Permalink
Cheryl Straight

wright, it has been a couple of years (you were in a play -hs I think)

hope it is still available to be found this weekend...
