Rumpus Riddle Answer #6

Thanks to all of you who took the time to answer this riddle.

A snail is at the base of a 15
foot tree and tries to reach the top.
Each day he manages to climb 4 feet,
but during the night, while sleeping,
slips back 3 feet.
How many days will he need to reach the top?

The answer? Well, on the 11th day, the snail will have climbed 11 feet and will reach the top on the 12th day by climbing 4 more feet.

Try your luck on this week's new Rumpus Riddle and thanks again for playing!

Hey C.I.V.!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your family, too!

I'm hoping to get back into the blogging groove after this long weekend -- it's been a really busy time.

Hope you and yours have a wonderful weekend.
