Slick: you want to go to the Pioneer Press web site and find the old clues there. ALot of good information, actually;

Although none of that info helped in the least find the Med today!

Has anyone come up with a bio of Eileen Wieda? I can't seem to find one shred of information on her.

She was a early black St Paul city council lady.

Weida was ripped up. There were a ton of people there all day. They could have missed it, but I doubt it. I think this clue wirter is being a smart ass and waiting till the 8th(hopefully) or 9th clue to tell us its in a big park like harriet or IM or CHEROKEE!

ROFLOLPMP ---------------> Maureen!!!

YES, I hate it!!! LOL!!! And more so when you talk to ME in code because then I can't unnerstand the clues and I can't unnerstand YOU!!!

I feel like a "where the sun ain't shining"!!!

Allison - As I recall, she served a short time in City office. Not sure where you'd find a bio for her. Maybe the St. Paul or Ramsey County Library folks could help.

Weida fits alot of the clues: but no Red White Blue anywheres. but she was on city council (quite the talker) and BEAUmont st near there, good view of dome, Gospel mission across the street. no Star, and other good tips in the clues.

Yup, Maureen!!!

Sheffer was interesting, a house right across the street had the side of his house covered w/ flags, a flag store across the street, a lumber store there (carpenters), good view of dome, nursing home on one side of park, that shoe mural, etc.

How about that U of M rowing club down by the High bridge and Harriet.
Is that public property?

How does one get to this Raseberry Island? Is there a road?

Slick, methinks you best be searching for a new moniker rather than old clues...

Sat, 01/25/2003 - 7:29 PM Permalink
Terry

Raspberry Island is actually reached via the east entrance to Harriet Island. As you go around and into Harriet, there's a one lane bridge that will take you to island.

The toilet paper sit-ee-a-shun is starting to get critical here...

You KNOW you've got the bug bad when you've not the time to give to going to Wally World for TP as that would take away from Med Hunting!!!

Hmmm, Beau Bridges? This is starting to remind me of the Como Hunt where there were lots of clues with no solid meanings.

Thanks Terry;
You know the Taste of MN is moving to Harriet this summer (St Paul makes the big leap) and will be along Wabasha bridge. THe bridge had alot of people looking today and fits clues, but so large the clues would have to narrow it down.

was thinking bridges too. i was maybe going to check out the highbridge today or tomorrow if tonites clue is applicable.

Orion: went over High Bridge today, awesome view of Dome; not much else fits. the Wabasha has more that fits, although the Dome view is not as good.

I was checking out the Wabasha bridge today, though I wasn't sure where they could hide it on there that the Sun doesn't shine. I climbed up the stairs from Raspberry Island and it was actually a bit nervewracking. If it was under the bridge, there's probably a lot of people who would not go look for it.
