there are those of us who are pretty much here 24x7 except for actual digging time, who are doing slogging in real-time. it's kinda interesting if you pay attention to the posts that there are 2 or 3 separate crews here, and over the course of the hunting season, it more or less becomes one.

yes, my work one. Electric and I just got a new one at home too. I can check work from home. It just takes a bit to do the whole log-in thing. Send a message there and I'll get it. Thanks!

I'm SO far behind. Somehow I let the first two clues slip by until this afternoon. I'll slog for a bit, but is anyone feeling benevolent and want to fill me in on the noodling so far?

Guess my mind's been other places - I'm gettting married in October and have started the planning. Man, there's a lot to do!

SueBee!!!! Hello and welcome to our obsession again!

Congrats on the wedding plans!

So far we have St. Paul Public Land - no golf courses or statues to annoy. Everything else is mud.

Thanks for the congrats, Terry. I'm really excited! Clues are same ol', same ol' so far, eh?

Depends on what you mean by same 'ol. But the mud is the same.

We had close to 50 folks there! It was awesome!! And former finders there too. You can read up some about it at www.coolercrew.com

Suebee, congrats on your engagement! Electric and I are tying the knot in late September. A lot to do doesn't even come close to describing it but it's the best fun I've had in a while. Planning a huge party is way in my line of work so I'm really enjoying it. I've often said I want to go into event planning so this a natural for me. In the twin cities or elsewhere? Mine is a little bit of distance planning, in Duluth.

that's pretty much it, sue. we await the coming of the 3rd clue. and that will either break the 7th seal, or close up the last 6 :). congrats to you.

I used to be quite an event planner...but think I burnt out of that a year or so ago.

Congrats to you too, Tiny Thumbs! I love Duluth. Ask anyone who knows me.

what kind of event stuff did you do Terry? I'd love to hear more! This break from noodling is a nice pause in the frenzy of my night.

I'm having fun so far. I'm trying to be organized and get a jump on things because I have a feeling in another 6 months I'll be a basket case. It's local here, in St. Paul, but my finace lives in Texas, so he can't come with me to make decisions. We have the church and reception site, and I've narrowed the photographers down to two.

Congrats on your upcoming nuptuals too!!

sue, i can't say i've had the experience of planning a wedding, (i'm single and happy about it :), but from the ones i've watched the planning of, you won't regret one bit getting a jump on things.

I did intergenerational programming and many events related to that. All very successful and first class...but after 5 years of that...and doing even more events in other parts of my work, I didn't think I could do ome more event without suffering from internal combustion.

We need new clues, is all, Brew. 23 hours is about the limit to chew on one. So, sometimes the room gets off topic. These people share a lot about their lives, and that's cool. It'll get back on topic in about 45 minutes, if Mom gets the paper out on time.
