Truly Puzzling with Roy G. Biv !!

Today, and going forward, seven or eight more times, we be having jigsaw puzzles, in Roy G. Biv, i.e. red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Or indigo/violet as one category.  

Since I really don't think indigo is its own color. I mean, it's sorta blue, and sorta purplish a little, but not really distinctive, get what I'm saying?

I'm sure you do.  

BTW, my jigsaw puzzle putting-together philosophy:  It's a very calming thing to do, and I do some of my best thinking when I'm putting a puzzle together.  When I was working in the animal shelter thrift store, once or twice a year this guy would come in looking for puzzles.  His practice was to put on a jazz cd, while putting the puzzle together.  We were of one mind, re: how it works on your brain, i.e. very positively.

Also, putting together a puzzle with a group is a fun thing to do, and fosters a lot of conversation.  When I was at University of Exeter a hundred years ago, with my group from Penn State, on our off hours, we would sometimes work on jigsaw puzzles together, and have a great time doing it. 

This would also be a fun thing for Christmas, especially with people you only see once a year.

Now, today's puzzles, heavy on the color red:

                                       big red flower and pale ghost of big red flower

SUPER COOL early 1940s movie poster for forgotten movie

Read the book, saw the movie, put together the puzzle.
