Answer:  RIDE OF WAY

(Very nice pun.  No new clue words today, but three of the jumbles came up as new.  We’ve seen “catjek” before.  The answer letter layout was another good jumble.  I love the period cartoons!  The clothing, the car and the horses!  lots of fun.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

    An especially good pun, as that’s the way people pronounce RIGHT OF WAY.
    PS. You’re not alone, UR; Thoreau is pretty spontaneous and hard to make sense of. He seems to be saying the opposite of Alexander Woollcott, “All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral or fattening.”

    Hello everyone! Happy New Year! I’ve been away for a while now. It was a very busy last couple of months, but I am back and will comment on all the ones I missed. So, stay tuned. 🙂

    Very nice pun! It took me a few seconds to get the answer. I got OF WAY first, and then RIDE as soon as I saw the remaining letters. The words were straightforward.

    Love the pics Unc. And I can see both of them!! I would love to drive around in that little car! I wonder what the horse drawn wagon is. It looks like it could carry bodies??

    WALRUS was a stopper, for a bit!!

    Yes Vijay!! You were noticeably missing! Glad you are back.

    Take care all! LL
