It is, believe it or not, an absolutely beautiful spring afternoon here in Michigan. (In some ways, global warming is kinda working out for us -- though still very scary.) What a treat it was to tackle this delightful Patrick Berry puzzle out on my back deck just now. Fun!

Got it except for second entries in Rows 9 & 10

And their too loops, Short work and plant that grows.

The second entry in row 10 - and its related loop - were the very last to fall for me, too. Challenging but fun!
