So where's the clue? Have we narrowed it down to three parks or less, yet? I think the "out of view" = Hidden (Falls) is too obvious.

I should check on the clues of years' past but I'll ask you experts instead... Is there consistency in which clue mentions the park year after year?

Also, Scribe, is there an ending to your joke? I'm ALWAYS up for a bad one and since we have time to kill...

And who would be the 'masterful posters'?????? Perhaps Mr.Shovelmaster has donned a new identity?

sharky, the end of the joke hasn't been written yet. she hasn't found the medallion (it's a collection of references to her earlier posts).

in the meantime, scribe, an engineer, a physicist and a mathematician walk into a bar full of sheep...

battle creek is still up there, but the more time that goes by without mentioning water, the worse it is.

I still say it has to be near a golf course. When they say stay away from something, it's there, but not to be disturbed

Will someone please explain to me why we're all so quick to dismiss hidden falls? I realize that around clue 4, anyone with Homer Simpson intellect can jam the clues into 3 or 4 parks, but are there any reasons to rule out hidden falls other than "it's too obvious?"

Well then almighty St. Cloud Digga...give me some insight as to where I might find the medallion.

To cure Vikings depression try a new obsession By taking part in our hunt through the snow But if you hope it's a profitable profession To a park in St. Paul you must go

Don't be a rapscallion and seek the medallion In places of the improper sort You're certain to cause a rebellion If you go where golfers cavort

= NEWELL, no golf course

Digger, it's been used both ways for golf courses, but statues are rarely mentioned. FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

FYI the old stockyard trail starts in Chicago, runs through SSP, and finally meets under the bluffs of Cherokee (railraod junction) Warner road and Childs Ave are the cross streets.

A man of steel cannot be real but another has plenty of mettle

Look for his name around our deal and you'll be in very fine fettle

To escape the herd find a peaceful bird somewhere deep in the snow

Our treasure is boxed inside the word and thats what you need to know

Lets say Rush is on vacation for th length of the hunt, I'm sure he'll return after the medallion has been found.

RushHarley is still here and with us tonight as a matter of fact. He just goes by another name...it is however at his discretion if he wants to reveal himself to the ladies....uh, I mean, let you know who he is.
