Erick and I continued our volunteer work - outdoors on the Montclair RR Trail and indoors at the Montclair branch of the Oakland public library.

We recently finished three jigsaw puzzles, numbers 25, 26 & 27.
This was our first "What If" puzzle. The box has a clue to the finished puzzle. But there's no picture to work from. |
A very special puzzle - a custom-made Ravensburger from a photo of our Thanksgiving dinner table. A gift from Carol & John. |
This charming puzzle was passed along to us by our friends Kathy and Bob. |
We hope that, wherever you are, you're enjoying the local beauty and your daily activities.
