Ashlee- are you still here? Do you have icq? If so, I could use some of your home neighborhood advice.

I was really leaning towards Merriam earlier today with Longfellow, the library, and all. But Linwood is looking like the best of the two. Clue 5, being near your goal

of yearning for learning... William Mitchell college?

It's my 1st day of digging, now that the park is obvious; unfortunately spent half the day looking for a monitor to plug into my laptop with the screen that suddenly

won't light up. Anyway, it sure is great snow 4 digging this year!

You can't really tell by the posts here, but there are enough people searching the correct park that this hunt will probably be over by tomorrow.

Thanks evil twin. I think somebody agrees/disagrees, they should respond. That's what I've been doing; then again, I'm probably annoying everyone to death

There is like no one out looking my wife just got back and it is dead out there. Last year cherokee was packed and was lit up like a chritmas tree. hundreds of

people were out theres. this year everyone is scattered all over the place. All I have to say is tomorrows clue better narrow it down quite a bit or they will need to

fire the writter of these things.

PS is there any cooler crew members out there from the '98 search!!!

Check out the clues. The second to the last letter in clue #7 is G The 5th letter in the third line of the 4th clue is a U The 1st letter of the 1st line of the 1st clue(2nd

paragraph) is an A. And get it, Man(second word of Clue 6) starts with M, thus this all checks in with the 7 day theory. Therefore, there's no doubt it's in Guam.

(you'd have more of a chance there than Cottage Grove) And, chickens have lips.

I was involved with the '98 search, though I think I've contributed more this year than last. Human 24, you and I seem to think alike. I wonder if you're thinking of

the same park that I am? I'm guessing you are.

I don't want to sound like a jerk, but it was fun throwing out theories when I wasn't sure about it. Now that I am, it feels more like I'm just giving away a secret. If

you want to take a guess though, I'll tell you if you're wrong.
