Thinking of Ukraine - 2/27/22

My thoughts have been with the people of Ukraine this week, so I thought I would feature a puzzle from the "Kyiv symbol series":

Climb the New High Mountain Again - 2/25/22

Early this year I promised myself I would post re-runs now and then instead of going bonkers trying to find something to post when it either got too late or I was running low on brain cells. I created a spreadsheet with every date in the calendar and a random previous year between 2010 and 2018.  This is the first of those re-runs, which takes us back to a puzzle I featured on this date back in 2013.  When I saw it pop up I remembered it immediately, which is always a good sign.  See if you can:

Wellsand's Gauntlet - 2/24/22

It's been about 3 years since I featured one of the puzzles from this Indiana series, and since I was talking about it recently with a friend who'd been caching out that way I figured it was time to highlight it again.  This was one of those early series that really grabbed my attention and I've always wished I could make it out there to log the finds.  Have some fun with:

What Three Wordles - 2/23/22

 Well, it looks like there were a lot of puzzles that came out yesterday in honor of 2/22/22.  I will have to spend sometime looking through them.  In the mean time, here is one of mine:

Cross Sums Times Two - 2/22/22

Today's New York puzzle gives you two for the price of one, which seems very much in theme for today.  This used to be my favorite kind of puzzle.  I kept a book of them in the car so I could do them while I waited around for my kids, which happened regularly.  Have some fun with:

Under the Gun - 2/19/22

This Washington state puzzle was passed along to me and it feels like a great one for today.  I spent some time yesterday afternoon trying to figure out cache placements for a couple of puzzle caches I'd like to get published in time for 2/22/22 (I'm calling them "Two for Twosday.")  I've had some ideas percolating for a while but I had to get moving 'cause as it gets closer I'm feeling:

Curling - 2/17/22

Growing up in Minnesota in a town with a curling rink, my husband learned the sport in gym class. There is certainly no shortage of curling available to watch during these Olympics, and we've seen quite a few different matches over the last 10 days. One thing I've missed seeing this year, though, are the great pants worn by the Norwegian men's curling teams in past years.  In honor of the pants that have retired from competition, I'm sending you to Norway for:

Lunacy Abounds - 2/16/22

Today's Missouri puzzle just dropped into my inbox and I worked on it while watching the Olympics women's figure skating.  It seems appropriate since this year in that event:

Easily distracted by cows - 2/5/22

Stopped at a light on the way to work the other day, I saw this in front of me and it made me smile. 

If you've been reading this for a while, you have heard me mention my fondness for cows, and may remember this UK "cache cow" series which forms a geo-art cow. Try your luck with:

#05 Highland

P.S.  The Olympics kind of snuck up on me.  If you've got any Winter Olympics or winter sports themed puzzles to pass along, I'd love to see them.
