Constructor's Note
What better way to mark 2020 than a crossword puzzle to go in our holiday card? I created this to send out to our friends to keep them busy while they wait for their turn to get the vaccine.

    Great puzzle Stephanie! I enjoyed all of the three you just posted - only thing keeping me from featuring them on the homepage are the audience specific clues. Thank you for sharing them anyway! Looking forward to more 😊

      Thanks so much, Mike! I am working on some that are for a general audience, but haven't quite finished them. I just decided to get started and upload these first ones. It's such a great interface and fun site.
