2013 - Cherokee Heights Park

I just had chineese food delivered, and I'm mistakened. I asked for my food extra hot (spicey) because I thought they didn't know what spice was and before even when I asked for it hot it wasn't hot- I was mistakened tonight :grin: Looks like I'll be yelping with the music I'll be tooting while I'm digging :grin:

The latest weather has the freezing rain starting about noon and the snow about 4pm. About 2 inches of snow.

Fresh snow??? The best place to dig is where it looks like someone was in a hurry. I would just love for that day to come that when who ever finds it said that they watched a dumb ass shovel it up and leave it there.

Nice to meet you as well Artemis. Good luck! I hope you got down the hill alright.

Well, if everyone wants some entertainment until the scrambled clue. The old PP board has one heck of a drama post.

I am sorry but what the heck happened to this board? Used to be decent to look at and converse with people. So glad I decided to join the CC last year so I can be around decent/nice peeps! :smile:

We're glad too.

30 minutes before the scrambled clue. If it's good - once it's unscrambled - we will know if we are going out or going to bed.

I wonder if the Granny Crew will yell out BINGO if they ever find it.

HAHAHAH!!!!!

Who are you calling decent? :wink:

guessing not you :wink: Cause of course from the boards the CC is nothing but nasty trolls...if only they knew!

I hope this clue will help connect the dots more. I am still certain that Crosby Park is a big Red Herring.

Little humor while we wait. Of course lets change this from geocache to the CW!

Scrambled clue 8

tons yon and a will a the

doctor under calling to buns ice down

chase rights don't there's wash define a

help cuts equal bruise your you place car

Thanks Marley.

Me thinks this will end up with us going to bed.

tons/buns

tons/buns

chase/place

Well Yon (if thas on purpose) means Middle English, from Old English geon; akin to Old High German ienēr, adjective, that, Greek enē day after tomorrow

First Known Use: before 12th century

I'm thinking the same. Maybe I'll wait for the "official" version, and maybe something will come to me to spur me to go out first thing before the weather comes...

These scrambled clues are a mess.

Dr. Justus Ohage, St. Paul's public health director, owned Harriet Island where he built the bath houses to encourage better hygiene....

equal rights = harriet tubman

That's what I was thinking.... DR. and wash... bathhouses

I just thought of the Dr. This verifies Harriet Island!

Scot with one t says its Dr Seuess and we'll be heading to como :ooh:

Chase-aka chase bank in downtown st.paul? Which on the map is across from Harriet.

Going to keep drinking my redbull and vodka...this is sad.

wash your buns? Bath house.

Calling the doctor will help tons.

don't bruise your buns

define a chase car

Don't bruise your buns

Don't wash your car

there's a place to wash your car?

I suppose if you drive it into the river.

Wash=Water St. W over at harriet??

Good noodle!

Cut to the chase

Something that rhymes with "place"

Marley and Artemis - Dr. Suess is one of my favorite children's authors. Como is not where we'll find this treasure.

I like that cut to the chase.

Calling the doctor will define a place.

I like it. Totally refers to the Crashed Ice.

When it is this cold, you do not want to wash your car for it will turn to ice.

If you go on the crashed ice, you will bruise your buns....

Hmmmm...

I just have a gut feeling it is near Downtown and right along the river from basically Smith south to hwy 61.

I wonder how many cars are racing up Shephard right now?

So then this would go back to my first inital thought when the hunt started. Its not IN a park, but its somewhere near/public grounds. Sure would be a great repeat of "out of the box" but yet in the "box" of St.Paul

There is a Dr Justus Ohage Blvd that runs into HI and close by Cherokee.

Maybe hoping its the Super Gulley? :wink:

I figured something like this would happen. Just not this early.

You know whats funny. The hubby asked me tonight if I was going out to the parks since I went with the kids today, then I realized that its only Clue 8! LOL Normally I go during the day until once it gets close towards the end and I venture out late at night because its majority of the time found then. I was thinking we were further than what we were. That trip sure screwed up my timeline.

Now I am worried I have to do this on a work day...ahem ahem sick....

I was going to go out tonight and look around that whole area....HI, Upper Landing....But, migrane came to visit....UGH!

Hopefully I can do m y long drive tomorrow after work and find it!!! I have some great noodles for each "area" right there!!!!

Its probably safer not to venture out at night. The ice is the worst I have ever seen when hunting, then again I say this now until its close to the end.

I meant the mobs of people leaving Crosby and going to Harriet Island.

I think equal rights could have to do with the marriage amendment. CW often uses current events

Isn't the Downtowner Car Wash adjacent to Vento Trail?

It is....I went right to googlemaps and was looking around that...I have included that in my search for tomorrow, but hoping once I unscramble, i won't have to venture to too many places...

OT - It's down there somewhere. I pass it often enough, but haven't paid that much attention to where it is exactly.

JOE!!!!
