Diversions

Last fall I bought this puzzle at a school rummage sale. I was not patient enough to finish it.

D. picked up this puzzle at a secondhand sale, but it was new and unopened.
We have already made significant progress.

The box contained two things of interest. One was a glue packet so you could
save your puzzle permanently after completion. We are not planning to use this.

The other thing it contained was a piece of cardboard designed to hold the lid so you could better see the image on the box lid. We are definitely not planning to use this either. Growing up I was NOT allowed to do a puzzle while looking at the picture and this tradition has definitely been passed down. Time will tell, but A. says he does not think he will continue it.
