Good morning, Mike, good morning, Everyone.

Mike, This one’s for you! ⚾️💤💤

TGIF! Today we’re in the Black Hills of South Dakota, visiting Mount Rushmore. You know, the only ROCK group, with four men who don’t sing! If there’s any connection between today’s date and today’s puzzle, may the historians amongst us please step forward. Personally I don’t know much about it, except that it’s huge, it’s iconic, it’s “America”. Kind  of like our Jumble. So, let’s get to it.  Nothing here today of any great SCALE.  No word in particular that could CHIP away at our thoughts.  Easy, breezy, good jumbling of everyday words. The answer: Really a give away, with those big heads looming large in the cartoons background. For those of us who write the letters down to solve, we saw the answer words as we wrote. For those of us who wing it, easy guess. Why Lincoln’s portrayed with the same mustache as the guy holding the specs…? Imitation the sincerest form of flattery? Talk about CHIPping away… Look where it got him…You know this undoing is putting them way over budget! Even back then! Jeff gave us a lot of little stone masons in the background; the two tiny ones atop Roosevelt’s head, HILLarious! All in all, an over the top puzzle to end the week.

Hoping Everone has a great day, and let’s not take anything for GRANITE! 🙋🏻
