$1,000 Tossup - PLACES
H I _ _ O R _ C

Van solves HISTORIC SITES. Let's meet Tuesday's trio for Day 2 of "National Parks".
Van Lee: accountant who works for Rent-A-Santa w/ his wife from Canyon Country, CA
Bonnie Fey: dental hygenist from Fargo, ND (NOT related to actress/comedienne Tina)
Jamie Duft: substitute HS teacher currently going to school to get her teaching credentials from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California
$2,000 Tossup - LIVING THINGS
_ L _ _ K
B E A _ S
Van is two for two w/ BLACK BEARS.
NP ON THE WHEEL: to Yosemite NP worth $8,000
(Remember, all of these featured trips are provided by the National Park Service.)
Jackpot Round - SAME LETTER
Van begins with a T on Jackpot. Much later, he lights up the N for $2,500. He dominates...
S A L T E D
S U N _ L O _ E _
S E E D S
...and solves SALTED SUNFLOWER SEEDS for $7,000.
PERFECT ROUND!
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $10,100
Pre-Round 2 Scores
Van: $10,000
Bonnie: $0
Jamie: $0
========
Round 2 - WHAT ARE YOU DOING? (PRIZE PUZZLE)
Early on, Bonnie picks up the Wild Card with an N. Her next consonant call of T gives her the Yosemite trip, but she then misses with an S. Jamie's first spin of the night yields a BANKRUPT. Van next calls two H's for $7,000. We later get to this...
_ H I L L I N G / O U T
_ Y / T H E / _ O O L
Van solves this puzzle for $8,450 and will be CHILLING OUT BY THE POOL during his $7,000 stay at the Almond Casuarina Beach Resort in BARBADOS; he's won $15,450 that round!
TRIP SPIN ID: JM33566 (John M. from Texas)
SOLE DUD: S (Bonnie)
BANKRUPT HIT: Jamie
Pre-Round 3 Scores
Van: $25,450
Bonnie: $0
Jamie: $0
========
Mystery Round - BEFORE AND AFTER
Jamie's second spin of the round nets her the Coleman camping gift tag w/ a T. Much later, she lands on the Mystery Wedge between FP and LAT. After calling two R's, she declines a risk of $5,250 cash and gift tag (unfortunately, that wedge had the $10,000). Towards the end, she lights up a $3,500 G. The board now reads...
A _ E _ A N _ E R
T H E / G R E A T
S _ O _ _
_ O U N T A I N S
She dominates and solves ALEXANDER THE GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS for $9,750 cash and gift tag.
PERFECT ROUND #2!
Pre-Tossup #3 Scores
Van: $25,450
Bonnie: $0
Jamie: $9,750

E N T _ _ _ I A _ T I _
_ _ _ _ _
All remaining consonants are worth $1,300 each.
E N T H _ S I A S T I C
C _ _ _ _
Our ENTHUSIASTIC CROWD applauds Bonnie for finally solving a puzzle to the tune of $2,600 (she initially added an S to the end of the second word but quickly corrected it).

Van: $25,450 cash and trip
Bonnie: $2,600
Jamie: $12,750 cash and camping gear
TOTAL MAINGAME WINNINGS: $40,800
