2002 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

Submitted by Casey Trauer on

Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.

I guess I better check under my car for vehicle tracking equipment. I'll also be paying more attention for cars that may be following me. ?????????????????

Hello Everyone! It took me forever to slog but I'm finally current. You've already made me laugh out loud several times so this year looks to be as entertaining as past ones. Hopefully this year I'll actually get to dig before it's found!

Sun, 01/06/2002 - 2:33 PM Permalink
Scribe

You know if you could find some glow in the dark stuff for late night hunting that'd be pretty cool!

Sun, 01/06/2002 - 2:33 PM Permalink
Scribe

Yup,good ole rit dye!

Sun, 01/06/2002 - 2:33 PM Permalink
Liquor Lady

I was thinking about dying an old pair of my blue jeans to black and hot gluing the polka dots to them

Sun, 01/06/2002 - 2:34 PM Permalink
Liquor Lady

glow in the dark would be great! my hubby thinks I'm nuts! but then he says that every year!

That's a great idea! Or get an old snowsuit from Daves (DAV=Disabled Americain Veterans thrift Store).That way you don't freeze your butt off....course it may be a balmy 50 dgrees during the hunt this year.

so who's gonna wear the bells, you? or leelabell?

Sun, 01/06/2002 - 2:37 PM Permalink
Scribe

Lee,says we should both wear bells! We'll see if our husbands are too cool for it....they dig with us but are not quite sure what to think of the silliness.

I need to find someone with a sewing machine. Oh, and good morning y'all. Or good afternoon I guess would be more appropriate. A Joe for Scribe. (But not to supplant her husband)

I won't get mine to do it, I can barely get him to dress up for halloween!

Sun, 01/06/2002 - 2:42 PM Permalink

L.L.,legend has it that back in the day was a charachter named Medallion Joe(go back to the 2001 board and Ian has dug a few posts of his up)he was a interesting charachter who liked number games as well as four letter word games.So in commemeration of him we look for palinadrome posts or even number posts and label them "joe".
