Krazy Pic 1 I don’t think we were too over-protective in child raising (well . . .), but, either way, I’d probably think twice before allowing my child to use this neighborhood play area!

Brain Teasers for Summer! Still pondering the cycle of currently-declining enthusiasm for solving Brain Teasers. 🙂 Combine that with an upcoming 3-week wedding excursion [our son’s] to Scotland later this summer (with a possible pause of Mailings), and we have this solution: Here’s the entire collection of Brain Teasers that were shared in Summer ’19. There were 16 Brain Teasers, 4 Bonuses, and 3 ‘Creativity Bonuses’. . . and TEN subscribers submitted at least one solution to one of them. This collection will be (re-)available for submissions until the end of September (’23). Dive in and have fun! Hope to (re-) hear from some of you! 🙂
