Geography Class Is Now In Session!
Time for us to see who passed, who failed, and who was FIRST to comment and guess correctly………………Before we begin, I want to thank my GUEST TEASER Miss Layla from CatWisdom101 for the awesome photograph of……………….where????? It is the Custom House Clock Tower in Boston, Massachusetts! Interested in some info? Try this LINK and you’ll see there’s much more to this place than meets the eye and there’s some interesting history too back to the 1800s.
Thank you Miss Layla for an INTERESTING Teaser which actually gave everyone a fit until someone GOT IT………..but before we get into that, please accept this token of our thanks for your photo!
Now – here’s the photo you all saw yesterday so you can put the PLACE with the FACE!
A rather magnificent structure isn’t it? Has some European touches which might have thrown a few of you off…………..the other thing is that you’re actually seeing part of the Custom House Hotel as well as the Clock Tower. Anyway, it’s a goodie!
Now, shall we proceed? SuzieQ is away at a cheerleading seminar, so we’ll just get down to business and let you know who got what. First up, our FIRST COMMENTER yesterday on the blog was none other than Miss Annie of Animal Couriers! Concatulations Miss Annie, this is for you!
Then our FIRST RIGHT GUESSER was our buddy from across the pond, Flynn of TwoDevonCats!! This is for you my friend:
After that, there were SEVERAL of you who recognized the photo or otherwise came to the same conclusion as Flynn and his Mom and those of you who did, get this for being “also right” !
Then of course we have THE GREEN BRIGADE……….that growing list of Teaser followers who are collecting (it seems) the GREEN BADGE OF COURAGE for either not knowing OR guessing incorrectly. We love you too you know! This is for you!
Now wasn’t that FUN as well as educational? My Mom and Dad have been to Boston and while they saw a lot of stuff they did NOT see the Custom House. Just an excuse for them to go back some day right? Right!
Thanks for playing along everybody! We will be adjourning class for now but next Tuesday at a SECRET time (you never know when) you will get an email notifying you that CLASS IS IN SESSION and to report to Geography classroom and review the photo. Maybe you’ll be FIRST next week?
Green has always been a favorite color of mine! it is tea time here in Northcote and a sumptious one it will be too! 😀

Yayyy, two weeks in a row! I have to try for the Triple Crown now.
My mum and dad went to Boston as a stop on their New England cruise,and mum took photos of the Custom House and Tower. Even though it was several years ago she has all her photos coming up randomly on her screensaver so recognised it right away.
Concats also to Miss Annie for being first commenter.

Congratulations to Animal Couriers and Flynn! The clock tower does have a FACE if you use a little imagination. Not sure if it looks startled or a little sad up there in the clouds. Maybe a little owlish… 😀

Sorry Sammy…we went away after stopping by the post early, early and never came back! Really, some kitties, eh? We would never have got this one. You never did say the location but we gathered the locale from the winners. Flynn is on a grand roll and we want him to get the third teaser too….c’mon Trouts let’s make a bet, 2 tins tuna and a a Party Time treat. Want to wager my friends?

I saw that guess and thought it was probably right….but when I looked up that tower I didn’t think it was the same one! It must have been from a different angle or something in the online photo I found. Also, I’ve been to Boston many times and don’t remember ever seeing it! Guess it’s not near Fenway Park…hee hee.
Great job by Flynn!!

Suzie called from her cheerleading course to say she will definitely be back on Tuesday. As for the Broomhildas on Friday, we hear they’re on vacation so I’m not sure if Mom and Dad will go it alone with the house cleaning OR another crew will show up. Guess we’ll have to wait and see! HAPPY SUNNY THURSDAY!
