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.

So, did we ever find out the real story on that bag in their car? it seamed lacey/purpley when I briefly opened my eyes

It was so funny! The bag is a "cooler bag" -- it's like a lunch box/baggy/thingy. It is purple and white. My husband brought some food back from his parents in it one day, and it was still in the car waiting to be returned. Fortunately, it can still be used for food products. I think it just made Me2 feel better to have it, like a security-barf-bag. She didn't want to take it, b/c it's not a throwaway thing, but we "persuaded" her that it was in the car for that very purpose! :)

See, sometimes it's okay to lie! Whenever anyone is faced with this age-old question, feel free to recount this tale.

Me2, at times, I wish I would have carried a bag in my car, which still has chunks down where the window goes into the car door. That's left over from the morning-after-my-last-night-in-Seattle in 1997.

5 year old chunks! Eeeewwwwwwww!!! But I cannot get them out!

if there's chunks where the window goes, its because you didn't have enough pressure behind it!
