~~  Contest     ~~~

Thanks for all the comments about the “Quest for the Gold” contest.
The common comment was that the contest is extremely fun but quite
challenging.

This week might be a wee bit easier.

Over the five weeks you will have to solve various riddles and
quests.  At the end of each week you will receive a clue.  Use the
five weekly clues (or as many as you could get) to solve the final
puzzle. To solve previous weeks puzzles, look at my back issues at
http://theromantic.com/romantic/main.htm
There will be weekly winners who will win a trip to the prize vault.
Those who solve the final puzzle will be in a drawing for a $100
Barnes and Noble gift certificate.

Here is how you start this week’s quest.

My Love One Another Foundation has helped to send hundreds of
children to summer camp.  What is the name of the summer camp I
partner with for this endeavor?

Once you find the answer replace the _____ with the answer (all
lowercase).  Don’t use spaces.
www.theromantic.com/____.htm

If the answer is correct, the web page will lead you to the next
step.  If it is wrong, you will get an *OOPS* page.

At the end of this week’s quest you will be told how to let me know
you solved it so I can enter you into this week’s drawing.

Have fun!

TheRomantic.com’s ever growing PRIZE VAULT is filled with books,
several board games including Romantic Sensations, An Enchanting
Evening and others, CDs, dance lessons and other fun stuff at

FRISKY CHRISTMAS

You know the 12 Days of Christmas.  Some people like to give a small
gift each day leading up to Christmas.

Maybe this year you can delight your spouse with a different bedroom
game on each day leading up to December 25.  Choose 12 of the games
and put them in a jar and pick one out each morning and then you
have all day to get excited about trying it out that night.

Here are some bedroom games to try:

~~~    Tip of the Week    ~~~

The Riddler
by Carl E Witten
http://www.TheRomantic.com/

Last year we visited Williamsburg, VA and bought a clear plastic
ornament with our last name etched into the ornament.  This year it
is hanging on our tree right in the front where everyone can see it.
What she doesn’t know is that on Christmas Eve, I plan to take it
down, take off the top and place a special necklace inside it.  Then
I plan to put it back in the same place on the tree and Christmas
morning give her a card with a riddle on it that will say something
like:

Last year we did something special, and made a memory, Something
that spoke of our love for each other for all the world to see.
This year that memory will be special on our tree As it shows the
world once again – my love – to you, from me.

This should be especially meaningful for her since, over the past
10-12 years, I have given our children a treasure hunt on Christmas
morning.  I place an envelope with money for each of them somewhere
in the house and then give them 5-6 riddle “clues” to make them hunt
for them.  She has enjoyed watching them solve their riddles to do
their “treasure hunt “, but this year, she’ll get to participate in
one of her own.
