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;m thinking the tip of the park by montreal and w 7th below the hill. you have to use your legs on the stairs there and kids sliding hills comming out of the woods.
I dont think I am going to lurk any more. I'll see all the real hunters out there. These people wasting space are too much a pain for me. I am still looking at the wreck clue and thinking over by the impound lot, or on old Barge Road...Barges carry coal. Going for a drive now! Good hunting to all!
do they do that face paint every day for the hunt? i think i saw them last year too. we were thinking that maybe they work for the winter carnival or something.
CYRTQ, there were a lot of people down there. Myself, Randy, Lisa's mommy, Scribe, THX, Green, Kris Digger, Allison Wonderland, TreasureHunter's Guide, Tim the Hunter, etc. The clowns were Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope.
Lisa's Mommy, I don't know all that were there last night. I could list them all, but there was A LOT of people there. Just wanted to give her an idea of how many. My apologies to those left out :)
CYRTQ, all the Cooler Heads that are down there don't know each other totally. We know each other, you could say, from the board here. Some have good, long friendships, some are just recently getting to know people. :)
I call my addiction Medallion Fever. It rises to a fevered pitch every year about this time and then settles down - but doesn't go away - the remainder of the year.
I met a lot of people for the first time last night and it was awsome putting a face to the name :-) And honestly I thought some people were the wrong sex until I met them but I won't mention who....lol
DT Dave and others.... I see you are coming around to my way of thinking on McMurray field. I will be there from 4-5 on til I get too tired... Come find me, remember what I'll be wearing? Would love to meet you guys as I've never really met any of you, just probably dug next to you.
I was there for awhile last night before the 6th clue came out. Here is all the knowledge I can give you about McMurray field...
1) Streets that border it - Jessamine, Lexington, Como, Beulah sp? 2) What's nearby - to the west The Park and Rec office, Animal Humane society - to the northwest - woods and a walking path through to Como. Also a deadend on Como. to the North you have a swimming pool, tennis courts across Como ave. To the East you have a busy street with houses on it. To the Southeast you have a RR Bridge underpass. To the South you have a long stretch with the RR tracks. 3) Signs in the park - Field Use by Permit only, a sign that shows which way to park and rec office, the McMurray Fields park sign, a sign that says no loitering in your car or parking lot, for visitor use only, and a couple of others 4) Park composition. Entire east end is dedicated to broomball ice, maybe 4-6 rinks. In summer this area is baseball fields. The middle and east end of park are fairly flat, no trees really to speak of. The west end of the park is a sledding hill encompassing entire SW, W, and NW sides of park, along with built-in benches for sitting. This area of the park is soccer fields (west) and baseball fields (middle). 5) Snow cover 1-3 inches. All footprints in park have turned to ice, and there are pockets of ice 2-3 feet in diameter under the snow everywhere. 6) What's visible - Space needle 7) Don't bother wasting your time around garbage cans, soccer nets and backstops, they have all be examined.

My friend Golddigger is in complete denial about Como
Golddigger is very wise...
Anybody down with Newell, we were there last night and that looks pretty promising
It's called Riverside...wandered around there a couple of days ago...
The medallion hotline says the hunt is still on. Surprising - NOT! This year the clues really have us noodling all over the city.

SysOp has been notified of MR. SNEWS.
