Summer
Solstice arrived yesterday! With all the focus on tidying up our yard for summer enjoyment, the very word took on a life of its own, playing games in my head. (Too much tea perhaps?)
As quickly as I thought of the word yard, several words snapped themselves to it, like the set of hematite stones I bought whose sole purpose is to seek magnetic pairings (kind of like the weirdos often do in ball-room dance class).
As a general hint, the number of letters in each missing word is indicated by underlines below each photo. I’ll give you
one more hint for (#2) since I think it's the most difficult, unless you are a pen aficionado;
until we bought it at a (#1) on Friday—for a fraction of its value—I had no
idea these existed! The boldfaced word is your clue.
#1. Yard - _ _ _ _
#2. Yard - _ - _ _ _
#3. Yard - _ _ _ _ _

#4. Yard - _ _ _
#5. Yard - _ _ _ _

Holy smokers. Some of those are tricky, Vickie! Might have to wait til you reveal the answers (to get the answers. ha haha) Susan
ReplyDeleteYes, I probably should have thought this post through a bit before publishing it! An obvious dud....thanks for commenting and rescuing me from a complete flop!! Vickie
ReplyDeletethe first is Yard Sale, the third would be Yard Stick, but I'm clueless on the rest.
ReplyDeleteRiver, yep! I admit the others are too obscure - what was I thinking?! C'mon back tomorrow morning and check out the rest of the answers along with what I hope restores my readers' interests. LOL -Vickie
ReplyDeleteThe fifth looks to me like the 'Hard Yards' but I will most definitely be back to check for two and four.
ReplyDeleteHi EC, Thanks for being a good sport. I will try to post early....having trouble with the scheduled posting feature (again)! See you tomorrow....
