I’ve been going through older palindrome puzzles lately. I already know when I run into one of Eric’s puzzles I am in for a treat. This didn’t fail my expectations, another top notch puzzle. Slightly easier than the previous ones, but equally beautiful. Many thanks again.

Loved it. Not too difficult but you need to be careful

Your puzzles build character, my father would be pleased about that!
Thanks again for the puzzle Eric!

Response from Eric: Calvinball, that's too funny. "It builds character." I heard that countless times from my parents.
