Greetings and Felicitations Class – Have you COMMENTED yet??
Clowie and her cracker jack Security Team have given us the go ahead for class. All is well at Ding Dong School today!
I want to introduce two new students – Edgar is a big Harry Potter fan as you can see, and Marvin is just a happy guy period!
Always happy to have some new faces in the crowd aren’t we class. Let’s get down to business. Our Graphics Department came through with a really pretty photo for our Teaser class today and I hope it’s not TOO easy for you. We do want you to be challenged and make you THINK – or else your brains will shrink and disappear in your heads – know what we mean???
Let’s review the rules of engagement for making a guess as to where the Teaser photo was taken!
And here are the badges you will win if you’re lucky!!
I can’t wait to get back to guessing !!! I was MADE for guesswork!!!
OK then let’s bring on our Security Guard with today’s photo and then you can begin agonizing over it while our Cheer Team attempts to cheer you up………………………..
Ta Da! Whatcha think students? Give it your best shot…………………make sure and follow the rules! What TOWN/CITY/VILLAGE is this and what STATE (if USA) or COUNTRY (if not USA)??
Cheer Team – you’re on!!
Thanks team – that ought to put a fire under the rear ends of this pile of students here in class today. And if THAT doesn’t do it – I bet if we go have some nice refreshing and delicious lunch, everyone will be in a better frame of mind to study the Teaser photo and make a GOOD GUESS. Let’s do this!

Harpersfield Bridge is a covered bridge spanning the Grand River in Harpersfield Township, Ashtabula County, Ohio, United States. This double-span Howe truss bridge, one of currently 16 drivable covered bridges in the county, is the third longest covered bridge in Ohio at 228 feet.
After all that I am probably wrong so I am going to look through more bridge photos in case there is one that fits the bill better.

Once upon a time, there were two kingdoms separated by a river… East Klink to the west and West Klink to the east (Hey, the royal surveyor was dyslexic). Neither territory felt like harboring its own criminals… so for years East Klink would secretly deport its bad guys east to West Klink, while West Klink would secretly deport its felons west to East Klink. When both rulers realized what the other was doing after noticing that neither land’s crime rate was dropping… they came upon a compromise to turn the bridge dividing the two countries into a prison itself… creating a barred off no man’s land. Solid steel doors at both entrances made the only possible method of escape jumping into the river. Yet no East Klinker would dare swim west back home, nor any West Klinker swim east to freedom. Why? The river was infested with man-eating otters, of course! See them sticking their heads up there? They’re so cute, until they latch on to your jugular…

YIKES!!!!! Man-eating otters would keep MOST from attempting escape but I’ve heard Klinkers are a tough lot….they like to roll the dice….like to take chances…..like diving from old covered bridges into the unknown. Thanks for filling us in on the particulars and – WELCOME BACK FROM THE BRINK OF THE ABYSS (that one in your kitchen).
