Hiya kids! Hiya, Hiya!

Good Morning Crypto-FReepers.

I see some of the same old faces out there.

But that's OK - I like you anyway.

Here's today's quote.

It's in season now.

Find a farmer near you and buy a dozen or two.

If you're interested, here's a few of my award-winning performances!

Froggy at his finest

Ha Ha Ha!

I'll be good - I will, (like heck) I will.

Ha ha ha.

You can find this fun quotation puzzle, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications.

I challenge us with the best ones out there.

The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example: AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogram).

Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you'll be solving them all within a few days.

If you're stumped, take a break and return to it. PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out. You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today's Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!

I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal's Helper below. You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.

One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don't put the actual words of the quote in the clue.

Then the son of Nokomis
Led the strangers to his wigwam,
Seated them on skins of bison,
Seated them on skins of ermine,
And the careful old Nokomis
Brought them food in bowls of basswood,
Water brought in birchen dippers,

Wow Baldwin. where’d you get that picture?

[FroggyTheGremlim]

I’ve read the poem several times. My wife and I went to a resort, I think in CT or MA. The hostess said “Welcome to Wawa-Taysee.” I immediately muttered “the Firefly.”

She said “You know!”

I love the poem. My mother (RIP) gave me a book with the poem and illustrations by Fredric Remington.

Maybe I’ll read it again.
