I would say, Luck Be A Lady Tonight [Ol'Blue Eyes, again] = Harriet "Wheel of fortune" is more than just a card in a game, AND "fortune" is not capitalized, so

David, if there is room, I'd like my today's pick to be Harriet. If that is full, I'll go for the East side of the river - Upper Landing. Thanks

Oh, I forgot to add, if the cluewriter was using "Happy Holidays" pair to refer to Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire in the movie "Holiday Inn", why didn't she/he

David, I think you may be right about Harriet Island being the correct park, but maybe not for the right reasons. What if the "Happy Holidays" pair referred to

I like the idea of wheel = wheelock parkway. You could make these clues fit Como if you tried. I refuse to try to make them fit Phalen because I hate Phalen

I'm not entirely sure what to make of this clue yet. Many are saying that in Crosby, the medallion was found under tree bark so the third line is pointing to

Should not be too hasty. I saw this elsewhere: Foresee = 4C = CCCC in medieval Roman numerals [DC is usual] There is a 400 year old Cottonwood tree in Harriet

I was thinking "bark on a tree" might mean a dogwood (tree). There is a Dogwood Lane up in North Oaks, probably private property. I don't think there are any
