The only thing is Homer and Dumas didn't write in English. Someone else translated their words using that phrase. Maybe that doesn't matter, but I would still hesitate to think we're supposed to get an author out of a phrase unless it's something more recognizable.

A lot of BC is actually in Maplewood, so that would rule those parts out going by the first clue. There are some more obscure parts in St. Paul.

Highland has a lot of stuff that seems so logical, but it never turns out that way. If it is in Highland, which probably is not true, it is probably on the disc course and they will make references to the hole names. I know all of them and some of you may too. Until I hear something in that manner, I will not lean toward Highland.

Doesn't usually pay to dig this early unless a) you're feel confident you know where it is, at least roughly or b) you have a whole lot of stamina.

I think far from the woods means far from a wooded area, but when you're talking about golf clubs, you have irons and woods so there's a slight chance it's a tricky reference to being far from a golf course instead of far from trees. Just a guess though.

earlier Noodlin included carnival = circus = Highland (has a circus school). Shakespeare = bard of Avon = st near Linwood. Knitted brows attributed to Homer = st near Highland. St. Leo's school = near Hillcrest.

BC is very large, but not all of it is in St Paul city limits ... guess it's worth taking 5 mins. to scrutinize the map and know where they are running the ski games within the park relative to other possible park locations where the puck could be hidden.

Helluva party at McG's.

Halloween Machine, you are on the right track. BC is in St. Paul and Woodbury, from what my map tells me. I'd stick to the St. Paul part, as it is away from the woods.

    The dictionary has the meaning of knit as: To draw (the brow)together in wrinkles:furrow. As in thinking hard?

    Thats Mounds park as opposed to Indian Mounds park which is actually a different one. Mounds is just a little afterthought of a park.

    como, as much as I hate to say it, is still a vague possibility because it does have plenty of hills and wooded areas that could fit the clues thus far.

    If there are no objections to the previous list, that leaves the following grouped in terms of what I at least think of as likely, somewhat likely, and vaguely possible:
