You're right; I did accidentally paste the same bunny pic, but corrected it within a couple of minutes.

Let me know if anyone wants hints. I meant for this to be pretty easy to keep the game moving.

No more hints necessary.  I used to live about 7 blocks from there, although it was still a fire station back then at 46th & Nicollet Ave.  Fun to see the old area again and it led to a ride around the lakes with my son.  Great way to start the 4th!

Did you ever have a playground like this when you were a kid?  It stands on a "Cliff" south of our state's river overlooking a wildlife preserve in the south metro.

We need to work on that.......
Mike, if you can get one of the MN pics, I will get WI back in the game if we tag team.  Let's restore this thread to WI glory once again!

Point of order:  Isn't there a rule that all posted pics must be current, and not pulled from an archive?  In recent days there are a couple of pictures with bare trees, obviously not taken in July (or June, for that matter).   I thought one had to actually go from one tag site to the next.

Is my memory faulty, or is there no honor among thieves?

Just curious; no dog in this hunt,
Jerry Roland

Jerry,

Unfortunately the rules were lost when the forum went belly up, but I believe the new or next tag can be from the archives.  I think this was allowed so the next tag could be posted sooner.

That's how I remember it too. To collect a tag it has to be a current shot, but the new target can be from archives.

C'mon Jerry, you can play too!

Well, the dead cat doesn't help me much. Do we get another hint?

Or does someone already have this in their sights?

Crashcup, I have a picture of a black 1948 Walker tank that I dying to use here.  I took two weeks ago while my step-daughter was having her wedding shower.  Just had to do something else for those 5 hours.  :)
Tanks are rather easy to find, but why'd did this city paint their memorial Black?  hmmm....

Regarding rules: as I was the original poster.

The tag has to be live but the new tag can be archive.

Lets see that tank

Jerry are you going to be at Soldiers Grove?

I just happened to be downtown yesterday fixing a sign in this neighborhood and saw a rider in black leather and bluejeans on a  burgundy Connie cruising the streets.
Anyone here?
You were so close...

The cat in question  is the third largest cat overall, but the largest in the western Hemisphere...
