I think I may go ahead and wear my pirate hat tonight if its not too windy. Otherwise I'll wear my warm hat. I carry around a shovel and a rake and sometimes a cane. I'll be dressed all in black, or at least it will seem that way with my jacket on.

would you like to go out med hunting and have your car stolen

Allison Wonderland

Its awfully close to downtown and the Capitol. How bad a neighborhood can it be? And again, maybe it goes towards being bold?

Leah Logan

I've had it stolen in better places than that

Has anyone ruled out Marydale? It is on Rose ave (June) Kent st(superman Clark Kent) or am I just trying to make the clues fit? Plus Foundry park is near by (fettle is loose sand to forge metal)...

Hey, if they posted everywhere that the 3rd clue was wrong, it must be important. So if you do that linking thing, it spells CITY. That leads me away from phalen from now

Allison Wonderland

Maybe the clue writer is REALLY mad? Maybe they were thinking, "I'll give em a tiny park with no parking and lots of interference in a bad neighborhood and then we'll see how fast they finish this hunt"?

Linking could also be Marydale park as it is from Maryland Street...and Dale street so linking together it is Marydale.....

too much thinking. too much thinking. too much thinking.

Allison Wonderland

Honestly I don't know what the PP wants. All I know is that the clues all seem to fit there better than anywhere else. So until I see something that makes me think that place is not plausible, I'm going to think its there. If you want to dig somewhere else, feel free.

Palace is on the West End- but since I was 4 I've thought it was there every year- we used to go look for the med when it wasn't even Carnival time
