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.

Wreck could mean construction, but I have always felt that the PP would try to keep people away from those types of places. Even polite digging reaks havic on a place.

Can you imagine what Conway looked like in the spring?

Langford looked good last night, but not now. I don't think there's a parking lot there anywhere.

Well my thoughts are still on BC. I drove out there earlier and so far I can make sense of the clues. Going to go digging later after the next clue.

I have no great ideas.

Hey Hey has three letters that repeat. Ok OK has two letters that repeat.

I was sort of looking for double letters around. Carroll? But, not really.

OK is oklahoma. Somebody must have mentioned that. Wasn't that at the Ordway last year?

I think BC and Phalen are the favorites right now.

What's the deal with Merriam though? don't know much about that one.

Evenin', 'Heads!!!!

Love ya, Mom!!! (((M)))

Was out at BC... From what *I* could see, Mac, too - there ain't nutting in the air that you can see down by the picnic. And the cops are keeping folks from digging at the opposite end, where the ballfields are.

And, if you *were* to find something in the air down by the picnic pavillion, then the tot territory izz outta site. And... the clue states to look for this. Usually when this is said, whatever they're referring to can be seem from the spot where The Med's hid.

Also, noodle this: All St. Paul rec centers are considered 'parks,' whether or not they're really named such. But all St. Paul parks are not rec centers...

Could still be Como, Mac. I've not given up on Como yet...

And Conway izz looking pretty good with library.

I don't know...

WELCOME ALL NEWBIES!!!! I can't remember all your names, but ittiz so nice to see you all here and noodling! So glad all you lurkers decided to quit lurking and GET IN HERE!!!

WHERE'S MY NINJA DOG, SHAGGY????? Boy, you better be down at MomPress tonite!!! You are sending me to the floor in tears o'laughter!!!!
