                  Perfect Sunday morning puzzle.
                  • MajordomoTom 10:05 · 2021-10-24T18:29:15.455Z
                    had to back-solve the second letter, but liked this a fair amount.
                    The fourth letter - for that stone, I found two answers in my research, but only one of the letters worked.
                    Nice puzzle, not too tough.
                    • MamaEllen 3s · 2021-10-24T18:41:41.106Z

                            Found a bunch of conflicting sources for this. Once I found a Wiki page, all became clear. Very nice!!!
                            • Sfull411 🤓3:56 · 2021-10-24T20:49:46.717Z

                                  Fun puzzle but frustrated by too many variations on the gift list. Sometimes Google is not your friend!
                                  • wendy walker 4s · 2021-10-25T17:19:07.508Z
                                    Yes, I had to Google!
                                    • Louis D 3s · 2021-10-25T19:01:24.311Z
                                      I second what hbxwords said.

                                              I knew there was a good reason I kept the shopping bag from my last visit to the Hallmark greeting card store!
