Time To Tell!
Hello Class! Welcome back to the Tell All – if you’ll take your seats I’ll begin class by saying yesterday’s Teaser was pretty darn good right? It was actually my own Teaser (well, Mom and Dad’s photo) and it was taken a LONG TIME ago…..some of you noticed that the photos looked old and they were! Over 20 years old!
We had a VERY FAST one and only FIRST COMMENTER yesterday too – he was right there within the first minute we went LIVE………it was my ginger buddy Flynn from HERE! He was the only one during the first minute too so he doesn’t have to share this badge honor with anyone – it’s all his!
Then it was just a matter of time with me keeping an eye on the guesses coming in – people seemed stumped for the longest time then WHAM BAM THANK YOU SAM someone guessed it right on the money! Who was it? It was “Mary In Ohio” who doesn’t have a blog but follows me on Facebook and she guessed the photos were taken in Harper’s Ferry, West Virginia which was CORRECT!
The Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers meet under the double bridge……..AND three states meet in this area as well which is pretty cool – Virginia, Maryland and West Virginia! It’s a very old town with a lot of history to claim…………if you would like to learn more about Harper’s Ferry and what it’s known for, particularly during the Civil War, just CLICK HERE! Harper’s Ferry is not a very long way from where my Mom and Dad live in Virginia and they’ve visited Harper’s Ferry a NUMBER of times, including on the train, which stops right in the town on its’ journey. The high river is because there was a big flood in November of 1985 and that’s when my Mom and Dad visited!
Congratulations Mary in Ohio! You might like to post your badge on your Facebook page – if you want to, just copy and upload it to Facebook!
But Miss Mary was NOT the only right guesser yesterday – that’s right – SEVERAL of you guessed correctly which means you get this if you were one of the lucky “RIGHT GUESSERS” !
On the other hand, if you were one of the unfortunate who guessed incorrectly………..well………….I guess you know what you get right? The famous or infamous GREENIE is for you!
I guess the hint SuzieQ gave you wasn’t much help huh? I’ll tell her she can skip hinting next week – that means you’ll be ON YOUR OWN! Tee Hee
Meanwhile, if you have a photo or two that you think would be a challenge for GEOGRAPHY CLASS, email it to my Mom at junekimm(at)aol(dot)com and who knows – one of these Tuesdays you may see YOUR photo here with all kinds of Teaser fans agonizing over the fact they can’t figure it out – trust me – it’s fun to try and fool everyone! If you do send a photo, remember to tell us WHERE the photo was taken OK? Attach it to your email and send it on its’ way!
You know by now that tomorrow is Thoroughly Poetic Thursday here at my blog AND we will all be writing poems with something starting with the letter “E” ! It’s also Thankful Thursday at Brian’s and that’s a FUN Blog Hop so hopefully you can combine these into a Thankful and Thoroughly Poetic Thursday like I do every week! See you then!
Hugs from Angel Professor Sammy!
Congratulations “Mary In Ohio”

Wow ! First time I’ve won anything but a greenie ! Now I have a question for your folks : Is that building in front of the church the Engine House where John Brown & his raiders were captured ?
LikeLike
The building you speak of is well below the church which is up on a hill……there’s a photo of the old firehouse/fort where John Brown and his raiders were captured on the Wikipedia site https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpers_Ferry,_West_Virginia just look on the left side and scroll down. You have to walk up 87 million steps (maybe not quite that many) to get up to the church from the engine house. That photo is deceiving – that’s another building in the photo of the church but it’s not the engine house. It’s such a COOL TOWN!

You are right….. that’s close enough to Mississippi to count. Only about a 700 mile car ride or so…. that’s nothing in the South! However, in an effort to keep my perfect record of getting Greenies, I’m going to have to invoke the horseshoes and hand grenades rule and declare no win for me!
