Magic Square Puzzle

Magic Square Puzzle:

Fill in the magic square in such a way that the sum of the numbers in each row (horizontally, vertically, and diagonally) is 264, even if you hold the square upside down. You are only allowed to use the digits 1, 6, 8, and 9, and each number may appear only once in the square.

Email or FB message me the answer. If you are correct, you will be entered in a drawing to win a prize.

Happy Puzzle-solving,
Squirrel

Tell A Story - Win A Prize!

I know most of you are anxiously awaiting the riddle answers, so here they are...


I changed my mind. I don't want you to stop reading this blog after the second line... Keep reading to find the riddle answers.


For this prize blog, all you have to do is tell a story! Tell me your favorite "This one time at camp..." story. You can either leave a comment on the blog or send me a FB msg or email (squirrel_872005@hotmail.com)


The answer to riddle number 1 is Wednesday (Speedy was the only one with a true statement)


Once you send me the story, you will be entered into a drawing to win a prize! Remember, you only have one week to send it. I will start posting the winners of the prizes later today. The prizes will come from the Amazing Squirrel Prize Box located The Habitat.


The answer to riddle number 2 is white. The only place on earth that you can go south, west, and north and end up back in the same place is the north pole, which means, the bear is white.


I look forward to the many "This one time at camp..." stories that you all have to share (you can share as many as you want, but you can only be entered in the drawing for a prize once)


Happy Camping,
Squirrel

Solve A Riddle For A Chance To Win!

Wow, it doesn't look like many people want to win prizes, Darque won by default this past week.

This week I have two riddles for you to solve. So just send me the CORRECT answers in a FB msg or email and you have the opportunity to win a prize. Think carefully, because you only get 1 guess per riddle. If you get both riddles correct, you will be put in the drawing twice.

Riddle 1:

A group of staff have been on vacation so long, that they’ve forgotten the day of the week. The following conversation ensues. Speedy: What’s the day? I don’t think it is Thursday, Friday or Saturday. Tigger: Well that doesn’t narrow it down much. Yesterday was Sunday. Squirrel: Yesterday wasn’t Sunday, tomorrow is Sunday. Hollywood: The day after tomorrow is Saturday. Titan: The day before yesterday was Thursday. Wolf: Tomorrow is Saturday. Sunshine: I know that the day after tomorrow is not Friday. If only one person’s statement is true, what day of the week is it?
Riddle 2:
You are out camping in the wilderness. You are awakened by a rustling noise. You go outside and see a bear outside your tent. You run 1 mile south, 1 mile west, and 1 mile north, to return to your camp which has been destroyed. What color is the bear?
Happy Thinking,
Squirrel
