Recent Clues:
Clue #1 Congrats to the finder, to all a reminder
To hunt hard from first to last clues
Medallion I is history. Now a new mystery
Begins -- strap on your hunting shoes
To some its demented, for all unprecedented
But hunters’ thirst must be quenched
Tell sister and brother we’ve hidden another
In a park where a body can be benched
Our 2nd prize? Don’t laugh -- 10-thou cut in half
So get out there even if it’s snowy
And as a special bonus -- some might say an onus --
A meal with our own Clueless Joey
Good hunting to you, let this be the first clue
Think of a woodsy retreat
It won’t be so hard if you channel the bard
You’ll get warm and smell pretty sweet

1. rose , hyacinth, ivy, magnolia, orange - sweet smelling - geranium too
2. the shakespeare tie in being EARL od "insert name " in many plays -
the king henry plays had a bardolph too...
3. woodsy retrat = forest and cottage both running into phalen....
early yet i know but fun to still noodle
Jessamine
Rose
Geranium
I think they will toy with us bewteen a park like Phalen (bigger) and something smaller like Beaver Park
Though a part of CoNo lines up with Rose and there's a 'warming' place there... I don't know. It didn't feel all that right.
I did find one set o'ski trails going around that woodsy area... Off path.
Hit Linwood. There's been a guy there about 9:00 AM, but he was gone by the time I got back. The woods at Linwood are like vertical hills. I doubt down there, but could be near.
No one's really out hunting...
Ran into Sunny - she'd been at that little park of Allison's above the Capitol when we were filming there. She found a ball of string, but too small to hide the Med in.
I think Cherokee is still a possibility.
"Channel the bard" could be just a reference to the clue writer. The woodsy retreat could refer to the fact that Cherokee Park was once campgrounds. The "get warm" reference could mean the warming house.
I'm keeping my mind open to Cherokee, but I'm still definately searching Linwood tonight.
Robert Frost
The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost
Mounds anyone?
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep
:smile:
Mounds anyone?
MONTANA? runs into como and phalen :smile:
Course that's old news.

Antonio: A Sea Captain by trade, Antonio is a man with many enemies in the Duke Orsino's court. Nonetheless he accompanies Sebastian in his travels. Memorable for the expression, "That danger shall seem sport...." (Act II, Scene I).
Shakespeare
A vision as of crowded city streets,
With human life in endless overflow;
Thunder of thoroughfares; trumpets that blow
To battle; clamor, in obscure retreats,
Of sailors landed from their anchored fleets;
Tolling of bells in turrets, and below
Voices of children, and bright flowers that throw
O'er garden-walls their intermingled sweets!
This vision comes to me when I unfold
The volume of the Poet paramount,
Whom all the Muses loved, not one alone; --
Into his hands they put the lyre of gold,
And, crowned with sacred laurel at their fount,
Placed him as Musagetes on their throne.
Shakespaere by LONGfellow...I'd be surprised if Jake isn't already at LongLake regional Park...
(WWJD = Where Would Jake Dig?) :ooh:
The ice thing is getting a little old.
