In today's puzzle we're going back in time to the 1800s to see how mail was delivered by steamboat. A steamboat uses the power of steam to drive propellers or paddlewheels. Steamboats where first developed at the end of the 1700s and used to transport people and cargo along the waters of rivers, lakes, seas and even oceans. With the introduction of modern internal combustion engines the steam powered ones where phased out and replaced in the 1900s.

Birch trees are known for their graceful, delicate appearance and are often planted as ornamental trees in gardens and parks. They are medium-sized trees with slender trunks and light-colored bark that often peels in thin, papery layers. The bark of birch trees is typically white, cream, or pale yellow, although some species may have darker markings or a more reddish tint. Birch trees can range in height from small shrubs to large trees, depending on the species. They are typically found in cool, temperate climates and can grow in a wide range of soils, although they prefer moist, well-drained soils. Some species of birch trees are also known for their medicinal properties, and have been used in traditional medicine for their anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties.
Time to split some wood for the fireplace. If you didn't know, the act of splitting firewood from logs that have been pre-cut into sections is called log splitting. It is done using an axe or maul, or by using a mechanical log splitter. Logs need to be split so they fit into wood stoves or fireplaces and help accelerate the drying process. Freshly cut wood contains a lot of moisture and doesn't burn very well.
