Deb, I'm not sure where I'll go tonight seeing as the top of the sliding hill is chopped to h-e double hockey sticks. My boyfriend and I will probably be out there somewhere though. I'll be wearing a black Spider ski jacket with a bit of red and teal and a red ear band. I'll watch for you. Maybe I'll go to the Cherokee side of the hill tonight (closer to the river). I'm afraid we wouldn't survive a prank like that, especially if it's true they're getting testy!
im sitting at my desk ignoring all my customers... i stole the hudson from the guys in the shipping dept.. the foundation thing has a place (it looks like for a fire) we can have a weenie roast!!!!! ill bring the weenies!!!!! we could all get thrown in jail for building a fire, or we could set the park on fire, melt all the snow and make it a free for all!!!!!
You know, the thought just occured to me -- I wonder how many different businesses are represented by those who stop by the Water Cooler? Just think of all the business that we're procrastinating in doing! Because, I too, am kind of ignoring my customers (just don't tell my manager!).
Okay, okay - Salacious is just someone else who thinks he's really funny. If you hold your cursor over the URL link he gave us, you'll see what I mean. Going to that website is a waste of time.
Hello all. Anybody think that the med is hidden by the backstop in the part of CP that is on the other side of Smith? everywhere else has been dug over 8 times!
my theory about the "back" thing is that it talks about the smoke stack and then you will be back and the next clue talks about the pyramids-- i think the smoke stack is to your back when you are looking at the bathrooms-- like in the north end of the park..
Yes Deb, but it could also be considered "filler". Just a word that rhymes with stack. The problem is that these clues are ambiguous at times, and you don't know what you should focus on, and what just may be words with no meaning.
Would you all like to know where I think it is? Well, I say it's at Harriet Island. Harriet's first name was "Rose", and Harriet Island used to a zoo. (Cape and Whip)
ok, i know where you are talking about, and that is still cherokee park, now the view from there is awesome!!!!! you will be back-- that is where people go yearly for the fireworks since it is such a clear view of the capital!!! but from there what is the 3 pyramids???? the domes could be the arches in the robert street bridge!!! and trapsing across the city could be the high bridge and the robert street bridge--good thought!!!!!
Can you see the pyramids from the corner where Cherokee and Chippewa meet????Cause then debs theory would work with mine cause then your back will be facing the Smokestack....And todays clue refers to Chippewa and yesterdays refers to Cherokee!
tried that baker park thing already, i was told that baker was just a playground not a public park-- i went up there to look around a it had been dug up a very little-- and everything else fit except for the pyramid thing-- and that i suspected the 3 backstops in each corner of the field--
Deb, where are you that you have a Hudson's right with you??!! Sure wish I did right about now!

Catch 22 - I think you're right on the Annapolis / "Spire" idea! Why are you guys talking about a foundation?
Heck, we should all do like last night, wear some common clothing as a sign of being a cooler-head.
Testy-schmesty!!! You know what they say about people who can't take a joke

Holly, check out message 5828 for the foundation explanation.
I have found a tremendous Medallion Hunt page that offers great
explanations of this years clues. I suggest you try it out.
Here is the link
Toby's St. Paul
Winter Carnival Page

Call the dept of parks and recs and they can tell you what that building used to be.
THANK YOU, Sal-ASS-ious. That was great.
You are a wild raging beast Salacious!
I hope you people all realize that everything in Cherokee Park has been dug up. Somehow I doubt it could be there.
Gee Salacious, interesting URL that Toby's page links to. I don't think I'll click on it :P
ok call me atheist, but i dont understand the "spire" thang-- will you please explain.......
Okay, okay - Salacious is just someone else who thinks he's really funny. If you hold your cursor over the URL link he gave us, you'll see what I mean. Going to that website is a waste of time.
Salacious--- Whoowhee especially at work. If you check out tobys page make sure you knpow who is looing over your shoulder
Hey, Salacious! All that for less than 66 cents a day! Yee-ha!
Hello all. Anybody think that the med is hidden by the backstop in the part of CP that is on the other side of Smith? everywhere else has been dug over 8 times!
Troy, do I remember you from such films as "Medallion, $3000 worth of plastic" and "Clueless-Pioneer Press Medallion Hunt"
Why do you think its the backstop? Cause its only been dug up 5 times? :)
Does CP go all the way down to the river.(Water Street)?
Troy - oh it's out there in CP, it's just a matter of who gets through the ice in the right spot first..
by the way, the back stop is not on the other side of smith....
Has it? Hmmmmmm.... well, some clue said 'back' in it. I haven't been here for a while, so where do we all think it is? Still CP. It has to be.
no, down below the bluffs by water street is Harriet Island
Yes it is Deb. Not the one by the sledding hill, the one by the high bridge near ohio st. hill
my theory about the "back" thing is that it talks about the smoke stack and then you will be back and the next clue talks about the pyramids-- i think the smoke stack is to your back when you are looking at the bathrooms-- like in the north end of the park..
No Deb. Further down than that on the south side of the road.
Does anyone think the "we dont't rec. such attire" s/b pointing hunters AWAY from Chippewa???
I personnaly dug up the place by the batrooms w/the three 7s on it at least 3 times. But it still could be on the sidewalk.
Yes Deb, but it could also be considered "filler". Just a word that rhymes with stack. The problem is that these clues are ambiguous at times, and you don't know what you should focus on, and what just may be words with no meaning.
Would you all like to know where I think it is? Well, I say it's at Harriet Island. Harriet's first name was "Rose", and Harriet Island used to a zoo. (Cape and Whip)
Well, then what do all of you think about a "rosebud" still giving pleasure? that one's really got me, unless it's referring to the Altoid can thing.
Is Baker a playground or a park? It easily could be there. Its right by CHAIRoKEY heights school.
altoids has a picture of a mint bush not a rose bush
ok, i know where you are talking about, and that is still cherokee park, now the view from there is awesome!!!!! you will be back-- that is where people go yearly for the fireworks since it is such a clear view of the capital!!! but from there what is the 3 pyramids???? the domes could be the arches in the robert street bridge!!! and trapsing across the city could be the high bridge and the robert street bridge--good thought!!!!!
Can you see the pyramids from the corner where Cherokee and Chippewa meet????Cause then debs theory would work with mine cause then your back will be facing the Smokestack....And todays clue refers to Chippewa and yesterdays refers to Cherokee!
"Rosebud" has been analyzed to death. It means the sled in Citizen Kane that is all nothing more nothing less!
Deb, where is the ball field in relation to Smith Ave?
Baker is a Rec-Center, not a park, sorry about that one.
tried that baker park thing already, i was told that baker was just a playground not a public park-- i went up there to look around a it had been dug up a very little-- and everything else fit except for the pyramid thing-- and that i suspected the 3 backstops in each corner of the field--
Does everything in the clues need to be seen at the same time?
I'll believe that from anyone but you and Joe M, Troy.
Holly, that's my theory about the "we don't recommend such attire" - it's not on the Chippewa St. side. But who knows. Could be filler again.
Yea I am sure that you need to see everything cause the place where the medallion you should be able to see everything mentioned.
Loving the new picture, Ian. You always have something good to say, whats the new news?
Yes, Ian you have to see it or it has to be vert close to the spot.
