I got it Tim- I just happen to think of those markers that revealed objects in game books as a kid when I was reading your post. Those were fun to do on long road trips with family.

yeah me2, but we cant give them away with every book! you have to go through some sort of hazing ritual so we dont accidently give one to the cluewriter.

I just hope it's not in the woods this year.

I'm thinking a bigger park, maybe BC or outside the city,  Really hoping not in mosh pit or on a cliff.

I don't know if we figured out who's doing it yet, we'll have to figure it out. A couple of people offered to help out, and I will too. I think we decided on drawing numbers and then picking in that order, its more fair that way.

I am answering an Ask the Historian "how did Battle Creek get its name" question tonight :)

I'm praying it's in Central Park in Roseville...it's like 3 blocks from my house. That'd be sweet. It's a good size park, not a whole lot of landmarks, but Merriam didn't really have that either.

Merriam was 'what can I see as far away as possible from on top of this hill'

I believe in my heart of hearts, it's going to be in Indian Mounds this year.  I'm usually wrong with my guesses though.  I do better with clues.  :-)

Before I'm not caught up again, I'm heading for the sheets.  Next week will be time enough to be sleepless in St. Paul

Goodnight, SCDs and MCL!

Another nice thing about pinpointing the old medallion locations is once we're finished, I can calculate how many miles the medallion moved per year. Who knows, some sorta odd pattern in the chaos?

Yay, Marley!

I am going to be whiney. If I can't have College Park, I don't want to play. (Actually, I will play anyway and endlessly bother whoever picks College before me).
