Wordles come and Wordles go and when they’ll stop, nobody knows. We’re on Wordle #381 and before the month is out we’ll have hit #400. You can almost trace the seasons in this manner. Every 90 words or so we move from Spring to Summer to Autumn to Winter and back again.

Wordle #500 drops on Halloween. Spooky!

In any case, yesterday we celebrated the 4th of July and I wrote a very patriotic article about peace in Ukraine at my Substack to honor the day. Peace is patriotic in my humblest of opinions. I also published two separate critiques of Stranger Things 4 Volume 2 which you can read here and here if you’re interested. I do write about subjects outside of the Wordle-verse!

But we’re here for Wordle so let’s take a look at today’s word!

I’m pretty sure that hint wasn’t too obscure. Kevin Costner’s Field Of Dreams has been around a long time and its most famous line is “If you build it, they will come.” Dream is also a five-letter word, I suppose.

In any case, doubt certainly didn’t narrow down my possible solutions much. On the flipside, it did cut out two vowels. My next guess I just ditched the ‘D’ temporarily to test out a couple more vowels and fortunately got the ‘F’ in green.

In keeping with my first two guesses, I tried to introduce the one remaining vowel I hadn’t ruled out yet, and came up with a word that used all three letters I’d gathered so far. I’m glad I didn’t guess fiend, the only other possible solution at this point according to Wordle Bot. I mean, fiend is a terrific word but field was the winner.

Have a lovely Tuesday everyone!
