    Constructor notes: This was my first rebus puzzle that I ever made, originally published on Feb. 29, 2012. I revised the grid and updated the clues.

      Wow - bringing back an oldie! Wasn't around this site back then, so I'm glad you did- this was fun!

        I’m not sure how old Crosshare is I’ll have to ask Crosshare Mike… but it’s probably only a few years… I posted my leap year puzzle on Cruciverb back in the day when I was just a noob and all my puzzles were really bad and unpolished… I’m looking back at them and the gridwork/cluing is really cringe 😖

        Fun, thank you!

          Nice job! I was thinking of making one like this for Leap Day!

            Fun! My first rebus puzzle! Took me a minute to figure out how to do it 😃

              I was befuddled for a long time before the rebuses fell into place. Great puzzle, Philip!
