Are you ready for a new mystery picture contest? Like to win a new book or two? Then you’ve come to the right place. Between now and the end of January, it’s time to guess the pictures.
So what do you think it is?
Make a guess and on February 1, I’ll draw for three winners from those of you who comment on the mystery photos in the next couple of weeks. Remember, the guess doesn’t have to be right. Just a guess. You do have to leave a way to contact you. You can leave your e-mail or message me on my Facebook page. You don’t have to like my Facebook page to enter. That’s just a way I might be able to contact you if you don’t want to leave your e-mail here. If you have trouble leaving a comment here, you can always send your mystery photo guess via an e-mail at annhgabhart(at)yahoo(dot)com.
The prizes are books. Bet you were really surprised by that. 🙂 But if you play the game, you might win your choice of one of my autographed books plus a grab bag book by a different Christian author. The contest is open to United States and Canada only for print books, but if you want to play and you live overseas, I’ll send you an e-book copy of one of my books (your choice) if you are one of the lucky winners. You must be 18 to play and the winner will be chosen by random drawing after the Jan. 31 deadline. Each guess on a different mystery pictures in the next couple of weeks gets you another entry. Remember, it’s more fun if you guess first and look at everybody else’s guesses later. I’ll let you know what this picture is on Wednesday and post a new picture.
Last time we had fun with this. Some of you were great guessers and figured out the mystery pictures most of the time. Others of you were more like me when I see a mystery photo and made guesses a bit off the mark. That’s okay. We’re just playing and wrong guesses are as good as right guesses to get your name in my drawing hat.
In celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday, here are some his inspiring quotes.
- Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
- The time is always right to do what is right.
- Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
- The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
As always, thanks for reading and I’ll look forward to your guesses on the picture.

Thanks for dropping by with a guess, Edna. I think I need to think up something a lot harder to confuse you people. Or then I could just trying to be tricky.

Great guess, Amy. But if you want to get an entry into the drawing for the books, you'll have to let me know a way to contact you.

Looks like the end of cut firewood to me.
I'm going against the grain, forgive the pun. I think it looks like some type of stone or rock that has split and you're looking down in a cavern. tumcsec(at)gmail(dot)com

Always fun to hear from you, Paula. Guess you'll have to wait until the next post to see if I'm tricky or just unable to fool you all. 🙂

From one farm girl to another. That's me too, Anonymous. If you want to throw your name in the drawing hat for the prizes, you'll have to let me know how to contact you.
A stump was my first thought, but I'll bet you're fooling us 🙂
Author
Sometimes I can be tricky, Loretta. Other times I just can't fool anyone. We'll see which it is later this week. 🙂
I think it is a log or a piece of firewood.

Thanks for stopping by and playing my guessing game, Beverly. I'm guessing you make beautiful and yummy cakes from your e-mail address. Come back later in the week to guess again. Maybe I should do a mystery pic of a cake. 🙂
This looks like the end of a log or a tree stump. I love the mystery pics!

A cross section of a tree, possibly a stump used for chopping wood. It looks like it's been around for a while. shirley(dot)d(@)outlook(dot)com

Thanks for coming by to make a guess, Ann. It could be I wasn't mysterious enough on this one. LOL.
Hi Miss Ann! I think I am looking down at a tree stump or log. Could have been cut using a chain saw.

Always glad to have you stop by, Melanie. You can see the "rest" of the picture on Wednesday or Thursday and make a new guess on another picture for another entry.
I think it is a cross-section of a log.

Thanks for making a guess, Susan. You can see if you're right on Wednesday when I'll try to come up with another mysterious picture.
I think it is the end of a cut off log that has sat outside for a while.

Thanks for dropping by with a guess, Chris. I'll enter you in the drawing for the prize books if you let me know a way to contact you.
I believe it is some cut firewood – stacked end up – arranged next to one another. And I believe it is oak.
