🎶 And if they stare just let them burn their eyes on you moving…And if they shout don’t let it change a thing that you’re doing…HOLD YOUR HEAD UP, oh…HOLD YOUR HEAD UP, oh…HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGH…🎶…”Hold Your Head Up” – Argent 1972 https://tinyurl.com/tnfbskfx
🎃 With pitchforks and fiery torches that men carry burning BRIGHT…
There’s something not quite KOSHER going on this cold, dark night…
With FLUID movement ‘pon a horse a man without a head,
Is what we see…(and here I’ll pause to say KOALA? …Shed)
It’s such an age old story…but it’s entertaining still…
The Horseman atop Daredevil…as they HEAD FOR THE HILLS…🎃
A few days before Halloween, and we once again, as so often in the past, visit Washington Irving’s Sleepy Hollow, https://tinyurl.com/3k22wxjx and have the Headless Horseman https://tinyurl.com/57tzauck grace our pages…It’s possible that many of you may not know that Sleepy Hollow is a real village, located in upstate New York… https://tinyurl.com/kujha85x And some of you may be unaware that David and his wife Claire’s foundation, The David L Hoyt Education Foundation https://tinyurl.com/2s27r5rf has a special bond with the Sleepy Hollow Middle School… https://tinyurl.com/2ttj9fpj …So it’s easy to see why David’s so HEAD over heels with the story, and why it’s always a Jumble staple, especially at this time of year…And if you’re not familiar with the story, I’d recommend reading it. There’s a reason it’s REINed supreme all these years…It can definitely STIRRUP the spookiness of Halloween…
…And today we see the Horseman fleeing the town’s lynch mob…as with HEAD in hand, he instructs Daredevil to “Giddy UP” …as they SHOULDER on, and frantically…HEAD FOR THE HILLS…https://tinyurl.com/msrxj32n And make no (Brom) BONES about it…this was another easy, breezy puzzle that didn’t SPOOK us at all…
So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a GOURD one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And here’s to hoping that in light of all that’s going on in the world…cooler HEADS may prevail…🎃🙋🏻♀️

💦 Her children figured they should HEAD FOR THE HILLS, since things weren’t looking too KOSHER after they splashed the BRIGHT colored FLUID on their Mom’s favorite KOALA bear pillows…💦
🐨 The kid’s book ‘bout KOALA bears, the pictures large and BRIGHT,
The bears Jewish, so KOSHER meals on their menu tonight…
The rhyming easily FLUID …the book so full of thrills…
They loved the part when all the bears said “Let’s HEAD FOR THE HILLS”!🐨
📕 In a story read year after year,
Washington Irving instilled quite the fear…
Of a man sans his head,
Conjures image of dread…
As upon his horse he does appear…📕
🔥Sleepy Hollow is where it was based,
And we watch as our Horseman is chased…
So he heads for the hills,
As the lynch mob sends chills…
All part of the story’s great race…🔥
🐎 But it’s Ichabod Crane on the run,
And he’s feeling quite under the gun…
Since the man with no head,
Has suddenly sped…
Behind him and so it’s begun…🐎
🎃What turned out to be only a gourd,
When flung at Mr Crane…he was floored…
Was the Horseman a ghost?
Of a soldier off post?
Or a lover whose jealously soared? 🎃
🎩 After that night ‘twas only a hat,
Lying beside a pumpkin laid flat…
Mr Crane disappeared,
Irving carved out the fear…
With that gourd and the way that it splat…🎩
Today is NATIONAL FIRST RESPONDERS DAY…We owe so much to these dedicated individuals who are always first on the scene in any emergency. I tip my cap, and hold you all in the highest regard. God bless. 🙋🏻♀️ https://tinyurl.com/3cjfp3cv
It’s end of the week , with a cap on Saturday ! Great way to cap off the week ! I had some trouble with two anagrams ! Yes , the KOALA bear was just not very KOSHER ! But the jumble was bright and I’ll toast with a FLUID ! The famous horseman of sleepy hollow did not make it headless ! HEAD came right out ! And (THE) helped put it together to HEAD FOR (THE) HILLS ! And Angela , your song was right on ! I always liked it and it fit todays jumble ! Everyone have a great weekend , and hold your up , high !!!!!
Tks, Jim. 🎃🙋🏻♀️
Good morning. I was able to get all the words with some serious thinking but drew a blank on the easy cartoon answer. I was hung up horse being the last word. Nice song choice Angela for todays theme. Until tomorrow take care
Good Afternoon, Paul.Tk you Take care. 🎃🙋🏻♀️
I paused on koala thinking it was a misspelled cola but then having the letters and the rider clue, the cartoon solution popped into mind.
Have a great weekend start.
Chuck.
I’ve been waiting for a Halloween themed puzzle and wasn’t disappointed today. My friend and I went on a Hudson River Cruise several years ago and visited Sleepy Hollow. Of course I bought a copy of “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow”. It’s truly a classic spooky story. 👻 Betty
