It’s finally here! This video about the St Paul Winter Carnival Puzzle Contest was a beast to edit, but I’m so happy with how it came out. You can watch it above or at this link:

As I said in the video, I also wanted to share the full puzzle solve, since it only lasts about 40 minutes. This can be part of your research if you’re training for your own puzzle competition. I synced up my team, Sarah’s team, the Jigsaw Junkies, and the Golden State Puzzlers (even though they weren’t actually puzzling at the same time as us). I also switched from Yvonne’s GoPro footage to my own phone footage at about 25 minutes, since in her footage it was a little hard to see the puzzle. The audio is all from my team. You’ll feel like you’re actually there at the competition!

Don’t forget to go back to last week’s Patreon post to see my bonus video about the OC competition. Thank you for being here and I’ll see you all next week!

What a nice venue for a competition, very elegant. I’m so glad you all had such a good time despite the cold weather. But at least you didn’t have to overcome the stray blizzards that happen at the least convenient times! I think jigsaws are wonderful for bleak Wisconsin winters. Thanks for describing the puzzle brands so clearly, I am much less frustrated choosing what I like in a puzzle. You are a treasure Karen 💕

I loved this video so much! We watched Wicker Kittens the day before, so it was a double whammy of Minnesota. I was born and spent my first 11 years in Minnesota -- still have many family members in the state (all avid puzzlers!). I'm now determined to fly back and participate in the competition in the next year or two. It looks like so much fun, doncha know.
