Sirslim i really thought it to be somewhere around, not necessarily in rice park.

I can't believe it's been seven clues without giving a little as to where the park or area is. They must have really taken the Newell thing hard.

Can I ask what MLK is and was I the only one to have the BAD GATEWAY trouble. I thought maybe they were trying to tell me it was not at Como.

Old way of traveling=streecar or trolley. Is the trolley called Capitol City trolley? I wouldn't rule out the Capitol mall area.

Thanks ICM, I have not gone out yet, except to do some drive by's. I've learned over the years to wait until I have narrowed it down a bit. Otherwise, you're to tired to see strait.

ok you know the clue that refers to east and west "East and west are part of our test, Though only one is the proper place" dosent stpaul consider Rice Street the divider were streets start using the direction west in there name? if so they could be using rice street to refer to rice park???

Ex. East Minnehaha and West Minnehaha

Once again, it is not at rice.

There are signs that point you to the history center. Memory lane? It's just off of University ave=the busiest street of all. Any takers?

That is what i thought but smeone told me wabasha was the divider

Sat, 01/27/2001 - 1:42 AM Permalink
Svengalli

"East and west" proper place... East is capitalized meaning it would be a proper direction anyway. Perhaps it's just pointing East St.Paul. Maybe Phalen???

I think Jackson is the divider

Could the man of mettle be Washington or ST Peter?

Diggin' Queen

yep, me too. I went out there, and was seriously disappointed to see that hardly anyone was there. If I hadn't had the kids with me, there would have been some explitives coming from my mouth.

Diggin' Queen

Rex, are you still there or did go go off to nighty nite?

Sat, 01/27/2001 - 1:49 AM Permalink
Svengalli

True about the East thing, but then again west is not capitalized. Meaning it is not part of a proper noun as "West St. Paul". Just a thought from someone that is grasping at straws.

Ok, all you men out there, I have a very important question to ask.

Sat, 01/27/2001 - 1:50 AM Permalink

First off, When I was a kid, I went hunting with my dad, and he always said that there was someone from the paper down there keeping an eye on it.
