It's the last day of June. The best month of the year has flown by and July is almost upon us. I'm hoping that means the start of a really good monsoon season here in the high desert mountains. As much as I love June, monsoon season is my favorite, or at least tied with early autumn, before it gets too cold. When the leaves are changing and afternoons are still warm and pleasant. Farewell June. Let's solve your final Wordle!

Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
STAKE worked out nicely. Sometimes, when you use a less common letter in the opening guess, you really do yourself a big favor. That's why I often use letters like K or B or F, just on the off chance I'll get lucky. Today I did. FLICK slashed the 37 remaining words down to just two, though I only thought of one: BLINK for the win! (The other word, I discovered later, was PLINK. That would have confused me!)

I get 1 point for guessing in three and 1 for beating the Bot. The Bot gets 0 for guessing in four and -1 for losing to me. This brings our final June tally to:
Erik: 22 points
Wordle Bot: 9 points
A triumphant victory for me! June is my month and I wasn't about to let the filthy, vile Wordle Bot beat me this time. Now it's on to July!
The word blink comes from Middle Dutch blinken, meaning 'to shine' or 'gleam,' and Middle English blenken, meaning 'to open and close the eyes quickly.' It originally referred to flashing or shimmering light before evolving to mean the rapid closing and opening of the eyes.
