WW - What I've been doing instead of blogging

Jigsaw puzzle

Whenever I came home for Christmas break during my college days, there was a jigsaw puzzle that I did.  It was a great way to take my mind off the MIT firehouse education during the semester break.  I wanted to resurrect this tradition in my own home and set up this puzzle on a train table in our family room.  A train table is an awesome place to do puzzles, you can sit comfortably on the ground close to the pieces, and they don't fall off.  Adam helped me a bit, Dova really had no interest unless I gave her a piece and told her exactly where to put it, and Doug came in at the end for the glory of the finish.  There was so much to learn from this puzzle!  Doug wants to visit the Corvette Americana in Cooperstown, NY and Adam proclaimed that he was going to be in the Soccer Hall of Fame in Oneonta, NY.  And did you know that there is a Trapshooting Hall of Fame and a Water Ski Hall of Fame?

Here's a before photo. Ah, I love reversing entropy and creating order!

Hopefully I can get back to my regular blogging schedule now that this puzzle is done.  There is so much to share!
