Grama is in old folks home in Eveleth and used to live in Ely. That's why were going up there during the day Saturday. To check out the renovations that were done to her house. We're going moonlighting Saturday night not Friday. I'm taking off to the bar right now but I'll pop back to check for your IM later tonight. I think it would be fun. Not sure where the bowling place is but they said they had Saturday moonlight bowling for $10. We could cheers the Cooler Crew that will be down here noodlin'

Clue #4

from the spot we're thinking
little italy floods were quite a sight
but the spots tranquil and serene
during the day and late at night.

swede hollow?

Artemis The Huntress

That was my first thought too LL! Or back to Indian Mounds- we always watched the flooding from there. But both of those were said earlier, so they must be wrong. I'm at a loss and too tired/lazy to go diggin for info.

they talked a little about in in that book I got for x-mas, that's what made me think swede hollow.

the four-step program for finding jakey:

  1. pick up the phone.
  2. call his cell phone number.
  3. ask him where he is.
  4. if no answer, return to step 1.
