I just won at the Octopus Art Scavenger Hunt in Minneapolis Public Parks!

Thirty Five brightly colored and hand drawn miniature Octopus (pictured on website) artworks will be hidden in the public parks of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Local artist William Hessian is creating the art and then hiding the art in hidden locations in Minneapolis parks. ( Read more... )

The final clues have been posted. The one I thought was at Lake Hiawatha is not there. Another one is, but it's somewhere down by the lake, and I don't care to splash around there with a flashlight. Maybe if I can get up early enough in the morning... yeah, right.

Congratulations!
I can't say I could recognize any of the hard or medium clues, and very few of the easy.

Then again, I've never even heard of a bunch of those parks! I'm sure most people have never heard of Painter Park, but that's my neck of the woods and where I vote. But I wouldn't have recognized it from the photos...

Sure had a nice day for it, though!

Congratulations!

Hey - remember that stock market game we played last year? I checked my numbers and if I had invested in those stocks then, I'd be up around $750 today! Unlike my 403b which is now worth less than the sum of my deposits into it.

That's the difference between handling your own money and letting someone else do it. If you knew then what you know now, you should have liquidated your 403b and bought those stocks. But who knew? Maybe this is a Sign - you should split your investments. Put half as much into your 403b, and take the other half and invest it yourself. You can hardly do much WORSE than your 403b right now, right?

I should check my investments, too. That would be interesting.
