Looking to get out of the crowd but want to partake in the celebration of our world-famous history during Defeat of Jesse James Days? Head to Oaklawn Cemetery Northfield MN and take a self-guided walking tour of men that were there that day in 1876.

QR codes on each stone will launch the mini YT videos with their story while watch me and Alan Freeland clean and restore their memorial stone monuments.

You can also look for the red flags by each of the 6 men.

Here's the google map that is also on each sign by each stone.

Want to cheat and just watch them all from home? Here's our "Stones and Stories" video playlist.

If you're not a "horseshoe hunter" because you didn't register a button to play, you don't need to have registered to claim a grand (2 if you registered). Go got a little walk today if you think something is making sense. You'll be surprised. Its absolutely perfect weather to go looking for my lost item. All you have to do is try to think like me for a few days. Be careful doing that. lol.

Hey everyone! Day 3 typically hones in on the spot while still being somewhat vague about that location. I know its not that specific yet but trust me Sat and Sun will be huge. Please take a bag out with you and pick up some garbage. Heck, it might be under the garbage and you're bending over anyways. https://www.djjd.org/posts/horseshoe-hunt-2024-clue-3-friday/

Grab a garbage bad when you go hunt and help pick up junk please. Heck, it might be under a piece of junk. Who knows. I wouldn't say if it was. But it could be. So why not pick up that junk? Be safe! Thanks everyone!
