Thanks. Just got back in town and saw these. As is my preference, I spent my birthday in Wyoming.

My Bro pulled his trailer. I pulled the Jeep. I took the Jeep for fun, but it turned out to be a stroke of genius, because we would have been locked out by mud if all we had were our heavy trucks. As it was, we were the only street legal vehicle on the hunt parcel. Everyone else was in ATV/UTV.


We camped at about 6k' elevation. Hunted at around 8k'.


Night temps were in the mid 20's to mid 30's. Not bad for October, and about what we always expect.


Did not get any elk, but had a nice vacation and off-roading adventure.

Time for a Thursday am brain tease. The answer is in the fine details. I'm not a detail guy, took me 5 attempts.

Let's say 35.


Or maybe 38. We don't have a good definition of how the geometric shape is counted. Is it objects? Or is it sides of the objects? Not clear to me.

I think you're on the right track Bill, sides matter.

Bill's correct, though I'm going with sides, so 88.

Pop, I had 88 early this morning. Changed it when I realized I had the order of operations wrong.


If we're counting sides, it has to be 38.

Assuming you counted other items, 38 is what I get too. This puzzle fits well with the thread title.

Order of operations is what messed me up. Completely escaped me.

I am definitely not the smart one here, but I will throw in my guess at 21...

Looks like it is time for some banana pie
