Weekend brain teaser and answer from last week

Question

A farmer needs to take a fox, a chicken, and a sack of grain across a river. The only way across the river is by a small boat, which can only hold the farmer and one of the three items. Left unsupervised, the chicken will eat the grain, and the fox will eat the chicken. However, the fox won’t try to eat the grain, and neither the fox nor the chicken will wander off. How does the farmer get everything across the river?

Answer

The farmer must follow these steps.

1. Take the chicken across the river.
2. Come back with an empty boat.
3. Take the grain across the river.
4. Bring the chicken back.
5. Take the fox across the river.
6. Come back with an empty boat.
7. Take the chicken across the river.

Father’s Day

Our Father’s Day celebrations are always a highlight of the year. Unfortunately, we can’t celebrate in the usual way (Coco Pops and Coffee Carts) but we are still hoping to celebrate together, while apart. On Father’s Day (Sunday 6 September) take a photo with your family (breakfast in bed, a BBQ, going for a walk…anything you want) and email it to us at rubykb@gmail.com by Monday 7 September so that you can be part of our Father’s Day @ Emanuel celebration video!  For more information: Virtual Father’s Day

To all the Fathers, Grandfathers and special friends in our Emanuel Community, we would like to wish you a very Happy Father’s Day!
