How about a cave in battlcreek away from the storm drains? It's shelter from the storm, always warm,even in the dead of winter. Cave doors are always open and I think they widened them so that they don't cave in. Tripoli means three cities together. So could it be a park where three cities meet?
3M is by this park along with 3 cities (St Paul,Woodbury, Mapelwood)Storm=To charge or attack with a powerful force=BATTLECREEK! 3M Capital ,3 cities tripoli?

I'm working on my park ratings for today. As for the caves, I know they don't really want people going in them, so I don't know if they would write a clue like this about them.

Now I have a question for the east siders. What is the Marion Center by Indian Mounds?

You can't see the capitol from Conway. Although if you find just the right spot, you can see the "1" on top of that bank building.

The THG says it's an old hospital building that is now the Marion Center.

I don't know, I think this seeing the capitol dome is trying to throw us off, I'm thinking maybe a PP machine, with the Capitol Dome on the banner at the top of the paper

A nursing home would make sense. Not quite the shelter I was looking for though. There are a couple of picnic shelters at IM, but I don't think they would keep you warm.

Allison Wonderland

I'm thinking a shelter where you can stay warm and can enter anytime bodes well for the Rehash Bash though. hehe

Where would you hear that? I've spent all morning either in bed or at the computer. I am bumping it up in my ratings though.

Interesting idea, "A view of our capital dome" could just mean an image of it...

I really liked Eileen Weida on Burr St(Barb)too but now convinced it's not there

Tue, 01/21/2003 - 9:50 AM Permalink
Allison Wonderland

Maybe he saw someone that he thought was me. Or maybe I was sleep-hunting. Although I've actually never been to Eileen Weida. Not even sure exactly how to get there offhand.

mrmnmikey

With all the searching going on at mounds, I think either it will be found soon there, or it's in a different place...

The lower part of Swede Hallow is big, but I wouldn't call it huge. although come to think of it, the way it became a neighborhood in the first place was because it was a place where people could seek shelter and keep somewhat warm in the winter.

wow. that's an interesting take. that's good to know AW.

probably not.

There's a small parking lot on either end of it. Otherwise people would have to park on nearby streets. And while going down those 12 flights of steps may not be so bad, going back up after hunting for a while could be a killer.

I don't think they'll hide it based on available parking.

I'm going to go make myself some lunch. I'll be back in a while.

Just found out I've got a 4 hour meeting this afternoon at work. Between that and night class tonight, I probably won't be back until just about time to hit Ma Press.
