Did you notice that on Mississippi St. (about 2 blocks west) is a building for the Minnesota Historical Society. The only part I don't like about the park is all the fencing...It is like they don't want anyone there.. The parking though, if it is there is great for a hunt
I only live a few blocks from the PP, but have never volunteer to go get the clue as I don't have a cell phone to call someone from there. But it is supposed to be out at 11 pm on 345 Cedar.
What I don't like about it is the woods, especially at night, yet I can't see it not being there. Tonight's clue should further confirm it. Anyway, off I go.
Even if a person kept on the dove theme, Isn't there a book or something called Lonesome Dove, and then I always liked Prince's Purple Rain album's When Dove's Cry. So we need to think "out of the box" to think what the box may be.
I don't like como, i drove by there and it was a zoo--literally. From all the action, the zoo itself, and the diggers I really don't think it is there. If anywhere near como i like the McMurray fields across the street (i guess it is a part of como).
Someone meantioned Rice. They have a post on the Washington St. side in many languages that says MAY PEACE PREVAIL ON EARTH and across the street on the Landmark Center is a banner that says "Health-East Kings Court".
Annette, maybe you should focus on the *where* and just pick apart everything you find. I certainly am not saying that I would chuck a dove ice cream box if I saw it because I thought it was in a soap box. Besides, others are reporting decoys anyway...
I'm gonna make this one quick, but think about this. What happens if the circular thinking actually means that all the clues are opposite from what they mean?????
No, it is not at rice, it can't be. The people making the sculptures would be pissed if 3,000 people with shovels and icepicks started surrounding them, plus the park is very small when you subtract the room for the statues.
I just came back from checking out Phalen, Como, Arlington, and Marydale. The only one that I did like was Como. Phalen didn't strike me with any of the clues but a few. Arlington - I liked all the streets, Marydale - not much again. Como - one has to remember they aren't going to place the med anywhere the winter carnival activities are being held. It will be away from that area. Am checking out a few ideas and will let you know if I find anything. CaCoMe, are you out there yet?
REg- I can tell you a few. All the streets around the area are like flower streets. Desota street an old street car was named that there is a clark street that runs to it
kas - yeah - gotta figure out the park 1st, but just saying with anyone that has a hunch of where they think it might be, to think of a few items it could be in. Phalen as Wheelock Pkway (Circular thinking and linking)that runs into the entrance of the park on Phalen Drive, then there is a bike/walking path (riding, travel old way). The have a basketball court (keep on your toes), a playground, Clear Ave.
The AA clues are: Desoto street--a car traveling the old way Clark street--think superman=man of steel, Clark Kent=man of mettle Off base--a few of baseball fields
yeah - I liked Rice a couple of days ago until last nite when I saw the carvers, don't you just LOVE going crazy like this? It's almost a relief (after a day of dissapointment) when someone finds it. I don't actually get out too much to look, but perhaps I will tomorrow. That is why I originally took the June clue and thought of weddings(and rice throwing), but Rice I believe we can safely rule out.
AA=Arlington Arkwright
peacock could be a peaceful bird (as is a piece of the birds name is in peaceful)...oh well - stretching here........

Its somewhere downtown around rice park or the cathedral.
I only live a few blocks from the PP, but have never volunteer to go get the clue as I don't have a cell phone to call someone from there. But it is supposed to be out at 11 pm on 345 Cedar.
hey all what about Cherokee park ! its due to be there
Just an FYI: The clue has been notoriously late coming out this year.
BUT they have stuff going on tonight in the lobby so it's a good time even if you have to wait.
What I don't like about it is the woods, especially at night, yet I can't see it not being there. Tonight's clue should further confirm it. Anyway, off I go.
Allison, you gonna be at the PP tonight?
Good luck Allison - like you say - you just gotta finally go look, with what your gut is tellin ya
PalinaJOE!
No I won't be at the PP tonight. Not going anywhere near country music.
I should be heading out to Phalen w/ what my gut is telling me.
I still think it's at the showcase park. The clues are too overwhelming. But I could be wrong.
Awh, come on! We can line dance maybe?
What makes you think of showcase--by the way, where is that?
where is AA?
Como
AA is on the corner of Arlington and Arkwright, on the east side of 35
Oh, is that Arlington Rec center? the one by the library?
Nevermind, it screws up the browser!
I believe I have put it all together. I am going out in a couple hours.

Vio--I am not sure if a rec center is there--at least i didn't see one there today, but the park really reminds me of Conway where it was 2 years ago.
HI KIM ARE YOU HERE

THX, it helped me though thanx bro.

Tom, it wouldn't suprise me in the least.
Besides, Rice is all closed up for renovations. The sculptures are all in a tiny corner of what isn't closed.
What are the main points, clue references with AA??

its Desoto not Desota
To me it looked as though it would fit if you stretched clues more than taking them easy, and for what they say.
Crazy, where do the flowers fit in? With the clues, I mean.
I dunno they say something about 6 in a clue I think. The 6th month is June thats when most flowers are blooming and stuff. I dunno
yeah - I liked Rice a couple of days ago until last nite when I saw the carvers, don't you just LOVE going crazy like this? It's almost a relief (after a day of dissapointment) when someone finds it. I don't actually get out too much to look, but perhaps I will tomorrow.

howdy...cluemaster you here?
Annette B. Do i know you? Any new additions lately?
hey, Crazy, I think yer putting too much into it with June and the flowers thing.
I don't see any June or other remote flower reference. Nice factoid, though. :)
