Clue #4


Allison Wonderland
 

Here is the new clue:

Clue #4
We’re moving ahead, no oncoming dread.
Our future’s in our hands.
This new term is about what’s firm
Let’s avoid the shifting sands.

And the previous clues:

Clue #3

No time, old sport, to play and cavort.

Pursue the grail with your schemes!

Out at night? Then follow the light

To cross the way to your dreams.

 

Clue #2

Stay away from links and risky hijinks.

Disturb not ground, tree or trail.

Don’t wait for last clue to know what to do;

This year you’ll figure or fail.

 

Clue #1

Be it turmoil endemic or global pandemic

It’s been a tough year for us all.

So rather than punt, we renewed this year’s hunt:

Join us, it’ll be a ball!

 

Don’t be odd, stay in your pod.

Keep six feet away from strangers.

Wear a mask when on your task

To keep all safe from dangers.

Not the first to see the one way road or divided trail reference but I do think that’s the reference.

Moving on and futures in our own hands = uncharted territory to me- I think it might be in a new park.

Someone got some new term for a mattress or pillow? They are the way to dreams after all, and are commonly “firm”.

Our futures in our hands is a famous Churchill quote are there any Churchill streets in st paul? Just noodling here.

Churchill st is near the TC German immersion school by como.

North Churchill Street is a one-way road (no oncoming dread)

"no oncoming dread" anagrams to "nodding near Como".  A bit of a stretch maybe...OH NO

Now that’s a noodle. Well played.
