Whoever told you that is wrong...I am a student teacher at Cherokee Heights elementary school, Baker Rec Center and Cherokee Heights are not the same. Sorry

to disappoint ya, but you don't have to look there. just a hunch.

No user inform…

I thoroughly enjoy reading the clues. I am no where near St. Paul, but having been born and raised there it is fun to try to figure out. Glad to see the weather is

cooperating with the festivities. I am in Montana and it is 47 degrees and sunny. Good Luck treasure hunting!

What does the "tome" refer to? I think that is an important element!

Stone Cold is very bold, but his bragging gets very old.

If he knew where the medallion was to get, he certainly wouldn't still be on the net.

LILDEBI....WHY WOULD THEY PUT IT IN THE SAME SPOT 2 YEARS IN A ROW FACE IT YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE BECAUSE YOU CAN'T

READ THE CLUES.

SORRY lildebi,, I thought you said you wanted me to prove it wasn't at Highland..My bad...I think it's at Mounds Park..

Why are you guys buying the fact that Stone Cold knows where it is. If he was certain, he'd be out there looking.

He wants to sound smart, but he's not willing to put it on the line and look foolish when tomorrow's clue proves him wrong.

Can I join your arguement too? That way we can be even more productive!
