Find Ariel Jigsaw Puzzle

August 4, 2023 By Terry

This week’s photo puzzle is a bit different. It’s not a spectacular sunset or other naturescape, but something I hope will be pure fun. I’m calling this one, Let’s Find Ariel! While my wife worked at the Carlsbad Library, her supervisor had a miniature Ariel, which she loaned out whenever someone was going away. Everyone took pictures of Ariel, and it was quite fun sharing. We took Ariel to New Zealand with us, but for this photo, she’s right at home in front of the Carlsbad Library. Can you find her?

July contest winner

The July Book & a Latte Contest winner is Carol K. Her comment, picked randomly from last month’s comments, was from the Tortoise and the Egret jigsaw puzzle. Her time was six minutes and 34 seconds. Congratulations, Carol, for being selected as the July winner!

Did you find Ariel? In your comment with your time, tell me where you found her. (Hint: there’s something printed right below her feet.) I’ve been running these puzzles for two months now, and I’m curious about what photos you like the most. (Landscape, sunrise/sunset/ animal, finding something like Ariel). I hope you’ll let me know in your comment.

Photo of the Week – Find Ariel

This photo came about due to a confluence of events (kind of like writing a novel!). First, we had custody because we were getting ready to go on a trip. And second, I’d been noticing these nicely painted valves and marveling at their Rube Goldberg appearance. So, with camera in hand, I took Ariel out for a photo shoot. I think she rather enjoyed it. I hope you do, too! 

Did you see last week’s entry? You can find it at Which way is New York? Fiji directional sign points the way. Click here to view more Friday Morning Post entries, or you can follow me on Twitter.

About Terry

I started out as a skip tracer. Just in case you don’t know, that’s the guy who finds the people who don’t want to be found. It was the little things—getting paid to lie—that made skip tracing the fun part of the job.

Those years of chasing deadbeats taught me many valuable life lessons, such as liars come from all walks of life, and always keep your car in the garage.

    7:39 was my time for this puzzle. Ariel is on the box above the wheel on the left as you face the picture. I prefer landscapes as I think they are prettier; however, puzzles like this one and the last one titled, “Which Way To New York?’ are a little more difficult and some days I prefer the greater challenge.

    7:35 bit slow this week. Arial is below that FDC tag. I like any jigsaw puzzle, especially the obnline ones where you can’t lose any pieces! Thanks

    10:33 the slowest of all posters so far. I admit I was eating lunch and got distracted a bit.
    Ariel is above the left black wheel. Sorry Terry, I can’t read what that little sign says.
