Day6 was really solvable, essentially completely and with some stuff going into the adjacent days as well! Not trivial, lots of nice logic and good interplay between the various types of clues, but still, you could really get there in the end.

This one, I'm still moderately stumped and maybe just waiting for another adjacent day. In particular, your blurb here says "hook up more fence with day 1" but I don't think I made any such connections, though I did extend some regions of outside/inside shading from day 1 a bit. I still see two possibilities for how to make one of those connections.

I might have to go back and pull out last year's set now... really enjoying this year's one (mind you, my favourite type of puzzles)

I think I'm at about the same place Joshua is, in relation to where it will link up with day 1. I have two distinct possibilities, but I don't see a way to decide which is correct without more information - maybe from day 13, but depending on what we find out there it may have to wait until the 18th (depending on how much of 13 is dependent on knowing clues from day 20).

I think I was tired and just wanted a nice-sounding description for the post. :)
