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.

I keep waiting for the year it's back in maplewood! that would really throw everybody off!
Keep an open mind folks! There are no rules for hiding the thing...other than it be on public land. It won't be on a golf course and unless the PP wants a big lawsuit, it won't be in Maplewood. After that it's a crap shoot. It could very well be in the same park two years in a row, it could be at Phalen, it could be a Mounds, it could be at a rec center.
I liked Como the time before last,it was a blast when we were all lined up to the grove of trees digging.I liked the clues for the last Battle Creek hunt,letters times three...
I like Chair-o-key cuz that was my old high school stompin ground and I learned that Old navy sold socks!
I think my favorite was the first Newell Park hunt. There was soooo much snow...and some guys were digging tunnels in the snow banks around the hockey rink.
I hated the one at Swede Hollow when I was 12 years old.....all those old people cheatin with metal detectors! I used to bring bottle caps and bury em in the snow.....
She found the earmuffs. She wanted to keep them. I had her look around at all the office buildings around the Capital Mall and I gave her the mothering story that someone probably dropped them going to or from work and she should put them back. That was like 3 or 4 clues into the hunt. Later when we heard that it was found in one of the ears of those earmuffs, she swore she'd never hunt again if when you find it, your mother makes you put them back.
L.L.,I was a transplant too.I moved here from southeast Missouri when I was 11,I'm an only child and went of huntin....let's not even get into my parent's "letting" me or not.....:)
Oh Scribe, I know what I was going to add to your myth. You're a 300 lb guy with a hairy back pregnant by my girlfriend's grandfather who you met on Springer as a hairy taco, and you're going to have labor induced at the park the medallion is hidden at so you can continue digging up until the baby is born and soon after the birth.
Kids,I went to Hill-Murray High school.....class of '87 but I was an inner city St.Paul kid and worked downtown so I hung with Kids from Humboldt,Cretin,St.Thomas,Central....
Scribe...it was never at Swede Hollow. And also, Jake and I were not digging up the picnic tables at Como. We were very close though. We have it on film.

Good Evening!

yeah, hopefully haden heights by my house!
that would be cool!
Hello....COMO! You people never listen to me!:)
FROG POND ANYONE?
Only the Liqour lady is my friend.
See what I've been driven to?
Where the he** is Allison??
mmmmmmmmmmm. wonderland maybe?
So what about me? I thought we were friends!
Ter,we are friends,as long as you keep ear apparatuses(like that..I made it up) and not put them back!
Something I just plagerized from Mr.Sense on the other board:
"The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it is unfamiliar territory."
Not aimed at anyone,I just liked it!:)
I get lost going there often. Hmmmmmmm interesting thought. Maybe I'll get lost in that one too.
I wanna come! I wanna come!
It would make a great fourth clue,dontcha think?
hmmmmmmm, sounds like COMO!
ok so 3 yr old just stuck his tounge out at me cuz i wont help him pick up his toys! anyone got any soap?
Instead of trying to noodle clues yet to come, maybe we could talk about what has been our favorite hunt and why.
He did? Thats it tie that tongue into a neat little fishing knot!LOL!
I wonder if Wright Winger will wear his burned fatigue jacket to the bash? That was funny when he got his jacket on fire.
mine was probably conway, taught me a lesson on never doubting myself!
Or do what we did to my littlest sister when she said something naughty about this time of year...
we told her to stick her tongue on the metal clothes pole!
And not to be so quick to follow the crowd!
Good thing he had his back to the burner otherwise we would have had a weeney roast.
I liked Como the time before last,it was a blast when we were all lined up to the grove of trees digging.I liked the clues for the last Battle Creek hunt,letters times three...

OUCH! I did that on the fridge when I was like 8!
I think my favorite was the first Newell Park hunt. There was soooo much snow...and some guys were digging tunnels in the snow banks around the hockey rink.
my car got towed on that como one! we were on our way to that spot and got pulled over!
How about that hunt at the Capitol Mall Ter?:)
I wouldn't rank that one as my favorite, Scribe. Nope. Uh-uh. Daughter has yet to go hunting again after that.
I hated the one at Swede Hollow when I was 12 years old.....all those old people cheatin with metal detectors! I used to bring bottle caps and bury em in the snow.....
Though it did teach me a lesson about when and when not to be a mothering mother.
I really hated those metal detectors! It felt so much like cheating...didn't have my vision of what the hunt was about.
I havn't been digging that long so never got to experiance the metal detecters
Not to worry Ter,she seems to have turned into an exceptional young woman despite the horror of that day!
But I want her to hunt with us again! I figure she was lucky once and should be again.
lived in hinckley for a long time and never heard about the hunt till I came to stay with my aunt and uncle about 10 years ago
Well she came to the pre-dig gig last year it's a step in the right direction.....
Do you really think she's lucky?
We could tie her up and prop her up in the park......:)
ok so i'll bite, what happened to her ter?
Go ahead Ter,it's a tradition,kinda like "The Night Before Christmas" on Christmas Eve.
This will be our 31st hunt together. Incredible.
My least favorite hunt was at Tony Schmidt's in Arden Hills. It was so incredibly cold! I swore I'd never go out in that kind of bitter cold again.
Bitter Cold? Try harriet Island in '96! I was 8 months pregnant.....yuck!
Scribe, where did you go to school again? I forget

oh god ter! how much closer can you get! I think i would keep going until I foud it again just to redeam myself!
Kids,I went to Hill-Murray High school.....class of '87 but I was an inner city St.Paul kid and worked downtown so I hung with Kids from Humboldt,Cretin,St.Thomas,Central....
Yeah Scribe, I remember you going to a private school
Scribe...it was never at Swede Hollow. And also, Jake and I were not digging up the picnic tables at Como. We were very close though. We have it on film.
