(Sir Francis?  The snack cake person??  No.  It’s the Canadian pop star/actor.  My daughter used to watch him in some Canadian high school television drama.  Pre-“Glee”!  Not my cupa tea.  I’m more “Welcome Back Kotter”, “The White Shadow”, and “Fame”.  Yes, I’m old.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Clue/Question:  They were taking a tour on horseback, which would start – – –

Answer:  “RIDE“ ON TIME

(How’ bout dem apples, pahdnuh!?!  Horse apples that is!  Might be stinky to some people, but I love the smell of stinky puns in the morning.  Smells like . . . victory.  “Ride on, Josephine.  Baby, ride on.”

All of today’s clue words are old favorites, but all of their jumbles are coming up as new.  I was able to see them all ride away, today!  The answer letter layout was a fine little filly.  Disguised the big answer very nicely.

Another superior cartoon.  The guy is wearing a Michigan hat!  Not sure why they’re using the combined setting of beach and mountain.  Sounds like it might be a California thing.  I’ve got a California cousin who was quite the competitive cowgirl, in her day.  Took after her dad/my uncle who, unbeknownst to me, is a bit of cowboy legend, in some circles!  This made for a fun Jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
