O Christmas Tree - 12/7/13

Today we pay a visit to Canada's Ontario province where there is a geo-art Christmas tree full of Christmas puzzles.  I chose this particular one because I remember Christmas caroling with my mother's French students and singing the song in the title of:

Christmas Tree: Vive le Vent:

Tomorrow we'll be in Minnesota.

A Square in China - 12/6/13

Today we pay our first virtual visit to China.  At the time I looked into it, there were only 14 puzzle caches in the whole country, so I guess it wasn't too surprising I hadn't featured one so far.  The puzzle is:

A magic square ?

Tomorrow we'll pay a visit to a geo-art Christmas tree in Canada's Ontario province.

Noel Enigma - 12/5/13

Christmas is coming, so I thought a good puzzle for today would be this one, from Colorado:

Noel Enigma

*Note:  This puzzle had the wrong link, so I've updated it.  The other one was a perfectly nice puzzle, (I'm planning to feature it later in the month) but it's not the one I'd meant to share for today.

Tomorrow we'll make our first virtual visit to China.

The Case of the Missing Cache - 12/4/13

Today's California puzzle asks whether you can solve:

Tomorrow we'll be in California another day.

On the first what? - 12/3/13

I'm a sucker for holiday puzzles, so I was quite intrigued by this one from California entitled:

On the first "day-ta" of Christmas

Tomorrow we'll be in California another day.

Miriam and Christoper - 12/2/13

Today's California puzzle, created way back in early 2004, is:

Miriam and Christopher Moss

Tomorrow we'll be in California another day.

It's December and that means we're nearing the end of another full year of Puzzles of the Day.  I've enjoyed hearing from a few new readers lately, and am planning to continue in 2014 for as long as it remains fun, and doesn't start to feel like work.  I'm considering doing a "best of" puzzle once a week, going back to a previously featured puzzle that I really liked.  I'd also like to have a "viewer's choice" once a week, featuring a puzzle submitted by a reader.  Those submissions are really appreciated, so I'm hoping that in 2014 every regular reader would be willing to submit at least one fun puzzle they have created or enjoyed.  You can send it by commenting on any puzzle (I screen comments before they publish) or by contacting me (teamajk) through geocaching.com.

You Might Be a Geocacher - 12/1/13

Today's California puzzle confirmed it for me (#2 especially!) ... test yourself with:

Tomorrow we'll hang around in California another day.
