Jigsaw puzzles
Anyone do one lately? I haven't even touched one in well over 15 years and a few weeks ago the wife and I decided to do one. So she goes out and gets one of the hardest ones I've ever done. We pretty much each did about 1/2 of it. She started on the right side and I started on the left and we met in the middle.
When I was growing up, we spent the very long, boring, January days building puzzles. Me, my 3 sisters, mom and dad. Some would take a few days, some would take a week or so. The older we got the bigger and more difficult the puzzles got. We regularly built 5000 piece puzzles when us girls were all in high school. I haven't built a puzzle in about 5-6 years now. I kinda miss it...
I would estimate it took us 20 hours or so. We only worked on it 5 or 6 nights but that was over a three week period.
When I was a growing up our family did a lot of them. There was almost always one going on the back porch table. Then when I was in my late teens I had a good friend who's girlfriend was into them so whenever I would go over there to party we would work on whatever she had going. She did one that was called Hay In A Needle Stack. It took a long long time for us to finish that one. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=140177777917
