Alright, I'm going to go for a bit and get some stuff done. Then I'm heading out to the Conservatory later. I'm thinking its at a rec center, one they have not used before. I may check a few out today.

Long before The Corrs began to make their blend of celtic fusion music, Dublin rockers Thin Lizzy were gaining a following with their rock/Irish combination. They were amongst those to play The King's Hall in the 1980s, before the untimely death of lead singer Phil Lynnott....Talk about a tangent for a ThinKing. Thought you might find amusing!

Just looked up Palace in my handy dandy treasure guide(signed by the man himself)......

Palace looks like a possibility,Leah!

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:14 PM Permalink
New Daddy

Isn't there an ice arena around there? I know they have an outdoor hockey rink.

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:16 PM Permalink
Scribe

Leah,there are also hoseshoe pits there,View Street and Jefferson........which I think had something to do with that Hamilton and Burr duel......

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:16 PM Permalink
Scribe

Sounds plausible to me.........

Do they have any pirates or ballerinas?:)

New Daddy,you the one I was chatting with at McGovern's on sat.? Or are you another Dad?

I bet you can see the First Bank 1 from there...

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:19 PM Permalink
Scribe

From Palace? Let me think......I think your right Sue!

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:20 PM Permalink
New Daddy

Scribe nope not me I wasn't able to make the bash but it sounded like a lot of fun

How does deploy relate to Palace

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:23 PM Permalink
SueButt

If you come from St. Clair, don't you drive on a steet that kind of circles, and you pass an arena, or am I confused?

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:23 PM Permalink
Scribe

Can't find anything about deploy,new daddy.........still thinking though.

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:24 PM Permalink
Leah Logan

Yes there is an ice arena on ST.Clair and yes you can see the 1st Bank sign from there

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:26 PM Permalink
Scribe

No statues or golf courses........but it is a rec center not a park.

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:26 PM Permalink
New Daddy

I need help. my mom just registered, for the WC but we could not understand how to confirm the regisration sent in our email?? any suggestions

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:26 PM Permalink
Scribe

Pleasant Arena is right by Palace.

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:26 PM Permalink
Scribe

New Daddy . . . can you just click on "reply"? I've not registered that way before so I can't see how it works. Just a thought though.

New Daddy,

You need to make sure and copy the whole address into your web browser. I believe it wraps around to a second line and won't copy all at once.

View is one of the streets, although I'm not sold on that (too early!) But they used the word Well last year, apparently inadvertently last year early on...

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:32 PM Permalink
New Daddy

yes but it just says its invalid I just sent an Email to the help desk

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:33 PM Permalink
SueButt

Scribe, did they give you a cream for that?

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:34 PM Permalink
New Daddy

Gotta go!! Remember if you find 2 medallons share one with me!!

Is Linwood close enough to Palace that you see the same things?

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:34 PM Permalink
Scribe

Ice cream Guy,Leah said there was a mural of the ice palace there,it is on View and Jefferson streets,it is a rec center and has a horseshoe pit.You can see the First Bank sign from there,Pleasant Arena is close by. It's one I'm keeping in mind..........this is only the third clue........and I still can't figure deploy there.

Tue, 01/23/2001 - 1:35 PM Permalink
SueButt

Linwood kind of overlooks Palace

'mom'

Hiyall!

I've got 2 out of 3 kids asleep, and the one awake one is being content to lie on the couch and watch cartoons.

I'm gonna have to shut the cooler down and log into work for a little bit. I had a couple thoughts about circular....one is how about disc golf? Course that's at Highland and it was just at Highland a few years back. There's a veterans's monument there as well. Hmmm.

The other thought I had was perhaps a name of a street that is Palindromic (is that a word?) - like our palindrome Joe's or my H-A-N-N-A-H. Spelled the same forwards and backwards - not entirely *circular* but kind of on the same lines.

I must go. Back in a bit.

Scribe

Lee,yup,yup,yup! If there is any park I can proclaim to be an expert at it's Linwood!

You can see all of the clues from the last Cheokee hunt there too........needless to say the view is great!

I am not diggin up Linwwod this year,I am not diggin up Linwood this year,I am not diggin up Linwood...
