Tomorrow is Father's Day. Happy Father's Day to all of you dads out there! I hope you have an enjoyable day.
Tomorrow is also the Summer Solstice, and that means time for a CLUE! If you have the mini puzzles complete, I suggest getting your notes ready. I am hoping that this clue will advance some of you to the next level.
And remember, to win my prizes, you have to explain how you solved each step. For example, you might say: The number pyramid gave me these four numbers X X X X. It could only be those numbers because _____. That would be one step. Then you could explain how you solved the other mini puzzles. THEN you would explain what you did with the answers from those mini puzzles. This could be described as the next level. Where did you apply the answers to the mini puzzles? (You really should have had an ah-ha moment when you looked at all of the answers you were getting!) How did you apply them? What were the border letters for and about? What was your final answer?
Good luck with the clue tomorrow!

There is also a drawing being done that will be done form the top ten people who donated the highest amounts to our charities. That happens today. The winner will get a treasure chest filled with cool stuff. Good luck top ten! And thank you to everyone who has donated.

Sigh. I've tweaked and twisted and spun this in every way I can think of. And I still just get gibberish.

Unfortunately, this clue does nothing for me - doesn't help me in the slightest I already knew that, I thought that was implied a long time ago. Sigh - now to re-examine the multiple "solves" I have for some of the outside puzzles and see if I can figure out if any of them go together.

Just curious, does anyone else feel pretty confident that you've got all the mini puzzle answers?

I’m so lost, I just keeping going in never ending circles, looking for that Ah Ha moment! I only have about 4 different solves cooking on the burner and I think they’re burnt now! 😂

I've had one aha moment which makes me think I have all the mini puzzles. But what to do with them is a big mystery. It seems obvious, but the obvious way gets me nothing. And then the "Oh, that's clever!" way gets me more of nothing. And then there's the "Oh, I get it now!" which yields a big, fat nothing.
Plenty of it!

This is what gets me, "It could only be those numbers because _____ ."
I still haven't figured this out.

Was wondering if I could ask what the grey disc like object in the bottom right of the bordered image is just beneath the hare's feet?

It is a leaf.

Thank you! I should have asked sooner. Puzzled over it a bit too much.

Also - do we need the original Masquerade book or images to solve this?

No, you do not need the original Masquerade book or its images.

Based on the last clue, we are to examine things inside the puzzle. Does anyone think there are additional puzzles and/or ciphers inside the image? After trying multiple versions of what seems like the “obvious” way to apply (and getting nothing!), just wondering if anyone is seeing anything additional inside the image.
