Teaser Tell All

Posted on January 28, 2015 by onespoiledcat

Boy oh boy that was fun huh? I waited and waited and waited – first all the post comments were “have no idea” – “not a clue” – then all of a sudden I had bunches of you come back for a second look – something looked just a little familiar or was maybe a bit of a clue………….but finally I got some actual guesses. Here’s the photo again!

This is a photo of the beautiful Biltmore estate in Asheville, North Carolina. It’s an interior courtyard shot rather than the usual photo of Biltmore you see from the front so it was a bit of a “teaser” indeed………….in this courtyard are the entrances to the gift shop and an eating area………here’s what you USUALLY see (this is Mom in front in a photo from my blog in Dec. 2012):

The person who said “Biltmore” first didn’t say anything other than “Biltmore” – YES it was right but no other details were given – then 15 minutes later or so, the definitive guess was made so the FIRST RIGHT GUESSER was Easy and I’m awarding an HONORABLE MENTION to Madi because she said “Biltmore” !!! WOOT WOOT AND YAY TO BOTH OF YOU! I haven’t given an Honorable Mention in a while but you deserve it Madi so you two get these!!

FOR EASY!!

FOR MADI!

When I did this post last night, only one of you had ALSO guessed Biltmore and it was my buds the Kitties Blue!!!! You all get this little doozy and if anyone else chimed in with the right answer you ALSO get this!

GREENIE fans – those of you with not a clue or guessing incorrectly – here’s what you’ve been waiting for!

That was tons of fun…….as always……..have I told you all lately how much I love Tuesday Teasers? I hope you do too………you tell me all the time that you love seeing new places and having a challenge of guessing where the photos were taken so as long as you enjoy it – I’ll do it!

Now other business – – – the past several days I’ve been asking for POTP for my buddy Raz and his Dad who is in the hospital. As of right this minute, it looks like he will have his bypass surgery TODAY………this afternoon hopefully………….so keep the POTP coming please……..and if you want to leave him a message, you can click below and it will take you to his blog where you can do that!!

Thanks for your support –

you know how POWERFUL paws can be!

Love you all,

Sammy the TEASE

Sammy, you are not going to believe this – the hotel we were at this past weekend did NOT have bacon! But it DID have turkey sausage, so my human ate some (she does not eat red meat) – and I didn’t get any! Talk about totally unfair.

  Summer I’m so sorry that your human keeps taking you to hotels where bacon is NOT served! I think she should check first before she gets a room in any hotel when she’s traveling with you – if there’s no bacon I say move on to the next place! HAHAHAHA
