Jumble Spoiler – 07/02/20

Visual Description:  In Joisey, they’re at the shore.

SEFHR  =  FRESH,  YKALE  =  LEAKY,  BAREHL  =  HERBAL,  ANNCNO  =  CANNON   —   Giving us:  EHEKYEBCAN

Clue/Question:  They swam and built a sandcastle.  It was going wonderfully.  Everything was – – –

Answer:  “BEACHY“ KEEN

(Well, that’s just . . . peachy!  Of course, it’s a bit of a stinky pun.  But, it’s not like it’s low-tide, or anything.  Today’s Jumble reminds me of a once popular expression:  Life’s a beach . . . and then you die!

We’re having a successful run of no new clue words.  Three of the jumbles are coming up as new, but we’ve definitely seen “ykale” before.  It took me a few looks to see “herbal”.  The answer letter layout was a splendid ten letter jumble.  Without the quotation marks this might have been a more difficult solve.

The cartoon has a little bit of everything.  A nice family, enjoying a picnic on the beach.  You can see the sandcastle they built earlier.  The waves are lapping the shore.  There’s a gull on the ground, and one in the air.  And, you have the classic sinking sailboat on the horizon!  “Who could ask for anything more?  Who could ask for anything more.”  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
