Logan is full of fun, but he can also concentrate on a goal, and currently that is to beat daughter Lise playing Boggle when she comes in July. He is winning consistently against me, but so does Lise. When the neighbors gathered for a Memorial Day cookout, Logan played the game by himself. He was deep into a game when I took his photo.
He quietly exclaimed, “I found an 8-letter word!”
I’m so glad I went right to the table and took a picture. We needed proof of his great find. I texted Lise the photo and challenged her to find that word. She wrote back, “Challenge accepted.” She said later that she found it in 10 seconds. Just in case you want to look for that word, I won’t give you the answer right away. The letters have to be connected by a corner or side, and you can’t repeat the same letter block.
One morning Logan walked with neighbor Joyce and me. He was catching up with me, and I told him I couldn’t see him, but I could see his shadow gaining on me. We were walking by a woody area across from Joyce’s house. I noticed a very loud bird song and said to Logan, “It sounds like someone wound up that bird up too tightly.”
He showed me it wasn’t a real bird. He was twisting a small bird caller to make the sounds. That fake bird tweeted every once in a while for a whole mile!
Another day Kacey suddenly barked toward Logan’s house while we were on the porch. A dog barked back. I thought a second and said to myself that it didn’t sound like Izzy, Logan’s dog. I looked, didn’t see anyone, then spotted Logan facing the other way, cleaning the top of a wall. It was Logan’s “Woof! Woof!” that fooled Kacey and me for a short while.
The 8-letter word on the Boggle board is “remotely”.

Logan is fun and quite a character. He is also very bright. I couldn’t find the word so I’m glad you told us.

Okay! Tell Logan I found remote in about ten seconds, but I clearly didn’t look long enough! Good for him! He may just have a chance beating Lise!

Yes, Logan is good at Wordle. He often hurries through and could make careless mistakes.

Logan pointed out the word to me, so I didn’t find it on my own. His brain can twist and turn the connections in a way that I can’t. He is mentally more flexible. Even though he always wins now, I still love to play with him and see words that I missed.

I’ve loved watching Logan grow up through your eyes Anne. Love the ‘woof woof’ of the strange dog. Reminds me of my grandsons.

Logan IS fun. So glad you have him and share him with us. I looked for about 3 minutes and didn’t find it. How long do you have to find words?

You normally have three minutes to find words in Boggle.
