Answer: GET THE SCOOP
(That’s a good pun. I’m liking Jeff’s little travel log! It’s taking me back to when I was there. Unfortunately, it was the year before they hosted the World Cup, and there was scaffolding EVERYWHERE! There were no new clue words today, although I did have a little trouble coming up with “feign” and “cohort”. Not surprisingly, we have seen the jumbles “sepio” and “ciptam” before. Excellent job on the answer letter layout, Mr. Hoyt! Very nicely jumbled, indeed. Jeff, Kathy and the kids seem to be having a great time. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Our cohorts outdid themselves somewhat diabolically today! COHORT gave me fits. In looking at the word after finally figuring it out, it didn’t seem so menacing! I was looking all over for ch or th words!
Good ones. I’ve always wondered how current the puzzlers were, how far in advance they got them ready….so now I figure they must be pretty current.
And now I want gelato!!
Take care! LL
