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.

frosti, the fire pit at phalen was donated by east side lions club.
Okay, here is my take on the clue. "Time and tide" Tide refers to a river, either the Mississippi or Minnesota. Time refers to either a clock or something historical. "fun and slide" Slide refers to a sledding hill. Fun is pretty open for interpretation, since there are many ways to have fun. But playground is a good example of an interpretation. "Down the hill, far from the woods" I think this tells where to dig within the park. It's not saying where the park is in St Paul. "Show that carnival hunter's pride" Not sure about this one. Maybe it's just extra with no meaning, only there for it's rhyming. "And you may trip over the goods" This says that it will be on the ground, out in the open. It won't be up in a tree, under a picnic table, inside a tree or garbage can, etc.
Hi, Never talked on line before. No time to chat-gotta work. Here's my take on this: Time/Tide=magazine, soap box Fun/Slide=playground or sled hill Woods= either literally woods or mabey Woodcrest dr by Mounds Park.
Leela, before I head off to school, can you explain funland? Also, remember that there is a Highland Park area, could be referring to a park in the area.
Hmm, I still am not sold on it. But then again, I don't know that we have enough to be sold on a certain park. So I say... wait till tonight's clue! Anyways, off to the first day of classes for me. Have a good day everyone :)
just curious if it is talking about hills and all would it be Mounds Park :) secret might be out if thats the case. wonder if I should go ride my bike down that way today and see won't hurt to look. Your talking about Hills and the mississippi river it is near there.
I like the high land thing connected to clue 3, but I'm more inclined to think that's a way to get us to the wrong park early. The last time high ground was given this early, the park we ended up in was Cherokee.
Cherokee and Mounds - both high on the bluffs have moved up in my list of possibilities this year.
That is at least until something else strikes me or another clue that puts holes in the theory.
Sorry, I haven't looked back at what was said last night, but I thought I would provide my opinion anyway. I will read more later.
What about winter sliding. Like snow hill. I was thinking Battle Creek park and the sliding area. They have plenty of hills and trails for your leg work, and there is plenty of woods to stay away from. The other benefit is that the sledding area is lit most days I think.
Highland doesn't have a "down the hill, far from the woods area". I scoped out Highland quite a bit last year, and the only down the hill takes you right into trees.
Hey all I am way into this hunt and have been told about the watercoller thing from a hunting comrade last year now I am starting here how does this "watercooler" work?
well, jim, welcome to the cooler. basically we just sit around in here and noodle the clues. toss around ideas for where it might be hidden, etc. of course there's only one person in here who's actually found the puck, probably because the rest of us spend more time chatting than digging! lol!
Hello all I am here again, checking in from work today though.. The clues are sure not helping much... I was reading through all the posts last night and I am still with Green on this one I like Highland. Took a drive out there yesterday there sure were a lot of kids sledding over by the water towers.. I can't see them putting the puck there and have some kid turn it over and find it.. However Highland has a lot of areas where it could be hidden..
The clues have mentioned the word "time" twice. Although the med's not at harriet (because the rules say so), there is a sundial at Harriet. Anyone know of another park with a sundial or big clock?
Cherokee was my closest i think it was everyones closest. there were more people in that park that day. It was good that year so whats the thoughts this year? I see alot of you all looking to highland. it is interesting we are so stumped at clue #3 there has to be something here.
frosti, the fire pit at phalen was donated by east side lions club.
if you were hunting at a carnival, what would you be looking for?
loose women ?
Hi Mandy
nice ian! get your mind outa the gutter! did you see my earlier post? ooo, big joe!

ooo, big joe!
one of the 93x guys comes in every now and then cuz I give him a good deal.

I am still stuck on the first line pointing to Highland. It seems too obvious
HighTIME HighTIDE FunLAND LANDslide

Btw, morning LL and Ian and others :)
mornin kids, leelabell.
Last night Green was nooodling that the main words in the first line could be combined with the words in Highland
A FunLand is like a carnival where there are rides, games, etc.
state fair leela?
State fair is private land - won't be there
Anyway, the point is not the words themselves, but that they each go with a part of either High or Land
Hmm, I still am not sold on it. But then again, I don't know that we have enough to be sold on a certain park. So I say... wait till tonight's clue! Anyways, off to the first day of classes for me. Have a good day everyone :)
you too kids!
I'm off too, gonna be late! see everyone tonight!

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
mornin' everybody! i see there's not been a whole lot of new noodling since i last crashed.
Morning Ares
I'd like to thank Mike for taking out the trash. Seems like this place needs cleaned up more often.
Carnival hunting van is off to Saint Paul...
Good Morning All!

Happy hunting!
I'm off to work.
Yes, it seems much too obvious to be Highland.
Good morning all, nice to see you.
Mornin all!
40 degrees today!
The park is waiting for you!
Sorry, I haven't looked back at what was said last night, but I thought I would provide my opinion anyway. I will read more later.

Just a few thoughts.
Random, idiotic thought before I leave:
Could it be Cherokee, so that we can have the 5th Annual re-Hash bash where it originated?
Nah, I didn't think so...
Good morning all, nice to see you.
something kinda ironic about that line, leela!
the only good leppard, marley is a def one. def leppard rox.
Highland doesn't have a "down the hill, far from the woods area". I scoped out Highland quite a bit last year, and the only down the hill takes you right into trees.
At least from what I can remember.
"Im hooked on a feelin" we will be going from park to park till the 12th.
Im out to the parks, my coin awaits , and some pics.
BBL scdd's (sweet cooler day dreams)
Are you all ripping on my tag line? :)
Anyway, if I can't actually see you now, I am sure I will be seeing you soon.
Hey all
not in the least, leela. what do you think's blasting into my ear drums right now? of course given that the raven flies on the 4th sunset...
Hey all I am way into this hunt and have been told about the watercoller thing from a hunting comrade last year now I am starting here how does this "watercooler" work?
I wish I had music blasting in my ears right now - it would wake me up. I hope we have a nice sunset on the 4th day.
Hi Jim, welcome aboard. You seem to get the idea - you post your question or comment and we all chime in.
well, jim, welcome to the cooler. basically we just sit around in here and noodle the clues. toss around ideas for where it might be hidden, etc. of course there's only one person in here who's actually found the puck, probably because the rest of us spend more time chatting than digging! lol!

Mornin' everyone!
Phillip, I don't like Highland because as I recall, the sledding hill begins on the golf course.
LOL who is the lucky person with the real experience? what year? this is interesting. anyway
maureen hursey, she goes by that name on here, she and her brother found it in chair-o-key in 98.
morning, dal.
