I think you can see 3M and see the capital from some parks. Also, don't forget the noodle about it being wrapped in the paper with the masthead or being near one of the St. Paul city limits signs.
Just a note--the rhyme is not so good between winter, and enter. Let's refresh the memory.
Keep yourself warm, away from the storm
Even in the dead of winter.
Wide as triple E, our door will always be
Open to all who enter.
Now the forced rhyme usually means that they really needed something in one of these lines--badly. The key is to figure out which line is the absolute keeper.
hidden in a shoe perhaps?
Thanks for the clue guys!
Tripple E?
There was a shoe at Desnoyer, but I am pretty sure it is gone since the remodel.
Triple E is also 3 M on its side
Ed Sullivan reference...a really big shoe... :)
for beating me on with the clue!
And nearest I would guess, the first two lines are throw away.
Yeah but can you see the capitol anywhere from over by 3M? I don't think so
Well the warm away from the storm could refer to a picnic shelter
Though last time I checked those things weren't warm at all!!

There's 3 E's in battle creek :)
and that's across from 3M...
They can be a little too warm if you have propane heaters and you get too close!
Perhaps not from the corporate campus 3M in Maplewood, but possibly from the tape factory 3M plant on Arcade...
Last 2 lines= what it's in
Triple E could also refer to street names
good thought terry...so, I guess it's in a shoe near a propane heater under a picnic shelter!
Works for me!
yeah, it could be in a shoe
or a shoe box (although that is pretty large)
Could be a clever word play on "tripoli"
:)
It could be a kids shoe. Some come wide.
On the other hand, I would have thought the puck would be hidden in dirt, clay, grass and leaves this year.
didn't think about that one, dave..of course i didn't know about it, maybe that's why!
maybe it's on the side of the road or in a parking lot...you know how orphan shoes are laying around? where do those things come from anyway?
I really think it's about a door...a very wide door.
Someplace that welcomes people inside from the weather or whatever.
maybe it's in a shoe in dirt, clay, grass and leaves terry! haha
I don't necessarily agree with that. I'm keeping all options open.
Uhoh, unattended shoes beware!
it's says "our" door, who is "our"?

Okay, here is a stretch - Tripolitania became part of the Barbary States - the word Barb being used again.
holy geez, leelabell, i can see your brain smoking from here!!
I like the church Idea.
There are 3 E's in the last line
Shoes nailed to trees? Why'd people do that?
I like to think about these things :)
35 E (3 E's - sort of)
Our door, at the edge of St. Paul somewhere?
the same reason they hung shoes from trees at the U of M, it's "art"
Triple E is in The Battle Hymn of The Republic.
The Marine thinc.
Maybe they threw triple E in just cause you can find it in many things when you're looking for it.... kinda a mind trap
that's funny, leelabell, I was thinking our door as st. paul too, because we're open to all who enter, unlike minneapolis, they're jerks
