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 don't think it is in the air. Why would there be the whole "trip" thing. I think the air is clearly a reference to a tower of some sort.

Don't like BC. Big Ski tourney this weekend, too much potential for hurting some of the skiers.

Reg-- why rule out Newell, did something happen there? I was thinking about that park myself today.

Yeah, but the circumstantial clues should get you to the park.

I never like BC. Seems when it's been there is when we've lost our minds the most.

I liked the thing about Crosby too..with those giant ball things on the wires up above....when your on the phone that could be considered "in the air" or "on the air" whatever....and plus...those things are up "in the air" anyways....

How about this, since everyone is trying to figure out what other people are thinking, lets do this: In everyone's next message, write your top 3 picks. Even if you dont have a clue, just write something.

Highland is a good bet, but the clues (until the last one) are way to obvious. Leaves me suspicious.

I'm not thinking much about BC anymore either. So far liking Mounds and need to learn more about Crosby. I don't know anything about Crosby.

Highland has just too many ties to the clues to not be the front runner

I don't think it will be at Mounds.....too many fools to ruin the mounds..... although some of the clues fit.

Everyone always says Mounds, BC, Phalen and Como right off the bat... lets hear some real reasons why.....

I say still no park mentioned yet

I was kinda half liking BC before, but i read on here this morning that someone was kicked outta the park last night at 3 A.M. while digging for the Medallion....

Please all of you can stay at Highland

I like Mounds for numerous reasons

Wed, 01/23/2002 - 10:04 PM Permalink
Terry

I'm keeping an open mind. Anything is possible yet. The clues haven't given away that much...unless you read volumes into 4 line stanzas!

Crosby is down on w.7th and Shephard Rd. South end of St. Paul, near the AIRPORT

If you find Hidden Falls, Crosby is virtually next to it.

Merriam is very small, it has potential, but no more than any of the small rec-center like parks

Crosby Farm is bordered by Shepard Rd, the Mississippi river, W 7th/Hwy 5 and 35E.

I think it could be the state fair, if clue #1 didn't say at a St. Paul Park. Think about it: knitting your brow, space needle; it mentinoed the word fair... but oh well

so far 1) highland got 7 picks 2) crosby got 4 pics 3)mounds got 3
