2002 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

Submitted by Casey Trauer on

Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.

9 months pregnant? Now there's a true coolerhead for ya! Too bad you didn't give birth there at a park. "Yeah, and after you were born, we had to pry the shovel out of your mother's hand, she wanted to keep on digging!"

Jake Inge has already put in 50 hours this week with a 16 hour day yet to go tomorrow, anyways, thought Id give a little WHASSUP! to fellow hunters, I have a gut feeling that Steve Worthman, Tim Petrie, and Jake Ingebrigtson will be the 2002 finders.........

Is it official yet or do we still have to wait for the formalities?

Howdy Jake! Doesn't matter how much you work now. Matters only when the hunt is afoot. And I do hope that a true Coolerhead finds the puck this year

I should have found it that year just for the effort. But after trying to hunt last year with a baby and a 8 and 6 year old I would rather do it pregnant!!!!!! This year I promised them an X box if we find it so they are more pumped up. I have stooped to bribery as a parenting technic during the dig...and that is OK with me!!!!!

You have to dig in the right park in order to find it Green. By the way, put your damn phone on the hook!

Yes get off, I need to call you and tell you something.

ThoseMedallingKids

Snow mommy, I'll dig with ya. I'd probably play with the kids as much as dig. I'm a sucker for kids. If I find it, they can come over and play the new Xbox I get. If Tim finds it, they can go over to his house and play the Xbox he gets for us to play with.

Did you go to Park? Did I ask you that?

Snow mommy

Yes I do remember. My quietness has kept from actually going to any of the cooler crew events. For some reason it just weirds me out to walkup to people I don't know and say "Hi I am Snow Mommy!"

I go to park, ima junior

ThoseMedallingKids

Snowmommy, we know you, but we don't know you. I loved going up to people, them ask who I was, and them reply "You're ThoseMedallingKids?" It's neat meeting people and seeing who they really are. So you must come to the pre-dig gig. No ifs, ands or buts about it.

Tim, I won't hold it against you that you go to Park. I went to Sibley, and you were in our conference. Not any more though. Palinjoe jet?

My kids bought me a cow pooper scooper for Christmas this year. Along with a light that straps to my head. The cow pooper scoper is SO cool, Iknow t sounds weird but we tryed it out and it seems like it might be the best tool I've ever seen. I'll show it to you all and you will go buy one I swear!! Fleet Farm sells them. (And No I did ot try it out with cow poop.)

Sibley(trying not to laugh), yeah thats a quality school. They got sick of getting beat by the big three.

Nothing says "I love you mom" like her very own cow pooper scooper.

Cottage Grove has a strong tradition of medallion hunters, Jake could probably tell you about it.

I know they are great. **sigh** I think they had some help from their Dad though or I probably would have gotten an X-box.

They would have bought you an Xbox? Are you a video game junkie?

Green did you go to school, did they have schools, or even the concept of schooling?

ThoseMedallingKids

Tim, you know Green had to walk 10 miles through 4 feet of snow, uphill both ways, in footwear that weren't sorrels, when it was -40 out and they didn't have heaters back then.

Mommy, quit it out. I looked ALL OVER FOR YOU at Conway!!! Could SNOT BELIEVE a woman 8 months p.g. was out hunting with such fervor!!!!

Hie thee to McGoverns (Hubs and kids allowed; we've had wee ones still in those rocker-thighys...) on the 19th.

Besides, we need to meet The Kid That Dug For The Med In Utero And Made His/Her Debut Shortly After!!!
