Ahhh...It's winter time.....the water is actually frozen.

If they put it on the lake, there's always the small chance someone would fall throuth the ice. I don't think they would take that chance!

Snake,

In 1959 it wasn't at Como...it was at Warner Road – under a tree.

Good try though.....

Tim, yeah, I still think Battle Creek is in the running... But nobuddy was there last nite.

I learned last year when you're alone in a park all by yourself it usually means you're in the wrong park! LOL!!!

I've not given up on BC yet... But I just don't know...

Yes Fats I know that - but that doesn't mean you'll find me there

Jeez-Laweez, Fats! You get up on the wrong side o'the bed today?

All you say is true; folks are just voicing their opinions, as you're free to do.

I, too, wouldn't ever venture out on a lake. Those race drivers, I'll bet you dollars to do-nuts - HAVE to sign a release Bee4 they can race. I think asking folks to sign a waiver o'some sort Bee4 venturing out on a lake where The Med was hid would be a wee bit of a DEAD give away. (Pun intended... LOL!!!)

Not to get in the middle of this debate, but I will anyway....they only have car racing on the lake if the ice is thick enough and the conditions are OK. The people who write this don't control the weather, and the people hunting, so they have no idea whether the ice will be safe or not. It's just not gonna be on the ice, unless it's ice on land like a rink.

Hmmmm, ya know all these years we been using this board and it is so difficult to work all our ideas out as a group (people get off topic, or ya gotta go back and read 1,200 posts a day). What we should have a main forum, and then subforums for each clue, or something where all the legitamate ideas people have about each clue could be found right next to the clue in a list form or summin. Hmmm help me think........ ;)

I would've, but I had to get my buddy home, he was late the way it was. There WAS some sort of package out on the ice. Looked like someone was eating some sort of ice cream bars out there, sheech.

Yep, I meant near a parking lot. Some people did think it was in the ice at Conway, they dug up the ice in the hockey rinks! I went to Battle Creek last night too. Not a soul in sight. I don't think they would put it in Valley in St. Paul. I went there last night and the playground is right next to the school. The only parking is in the school lot, which is very small. I think it would be very disruptive to the kids if there were people digging right next to the school.

By the way, for the women who asked me if I was online with the dog: she does like cookies but she's never been online. Wish I could teach her to dig on command like my last dog!
