Clue/Question:  When the whole family got involved in building an outdoor living space, it was – – –

Pre-Answer:  Four Words  (3-letters)  (5-letters)  (2-letters)  (4-letters)  

Answer:  ALL HANDS ON DECK

(Not bad!  A little stinky, but not too bad.  We actually have a new clue word today, in “hotter”.  Our good friend, ralis95, will have to update his world famous clue word database for this!  Five of the six jumbles came up as new, with “sayile” having been used before.  The answer letter layout was a masterful jumble, but the clue/question was just a little too obvious – in trying not to say deck – to not get the answer.  Great cartoon of the family effort.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
