OK, I hope you had fun with this little quiz. Now, you all have a great day, you hear?
I didn't get even one of those right... (thought maybe Alaska had the lack of escalators)... Been to the Ben & Jerry's in Vermont but missed this one, too. Never even heard of Bob Ross.... well heck, you get the picture. Still, I enjoy your quizzes.... even if I'm at the tail-end of the class ;-)
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad, I only got one right. I almost got the Bob Ross question right but I thought the percentage was a little higher. Bob Ross is a painter who's shows are still being shown on public television. Since you don't have a TV, I can understand why you have never heard of him. I bet a lot of your friends who like to paint has heard of him.
DeleteI thought I had at least two right, but you blew that away with telling me that WI found two identical snowflakes. Great Trivia questions, made me learn something new.
ReplyDeleteOut of all the billions of snowflakes there are around earth, there just has to be a match somewhere. . . right?? Or maybe not. ..
Deletekeep em up, DD,,, always enjoy
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed them. I will try not to disappoint you.
DeleteI got them all right! And I have a bridge to sell you if you believe that.
ReplyDeleteI may be interested in that bridge if it is a toll bridge with a troll under it.
