📖 How I Solved It
I gotta say, puzzle #606 was a real head-scratcher for me. The combo clue about 'two things a percussionist might use' threw me off at first. I kept overthinking it and had a brain freeze trying to connect the dots between singular and plural. I even guessed 'bongos' at one point, which obviously didn't fit. Once I got 'CHIME' and started the word ladder, things began to click. I was pleasantly surprised when I landed on 'DRUMS' after a couple of wrong turns. The whole process felt like a musical journey, but it was definitely worth it in the end. I mean, who wouldn’t feel accomplished after figuring out 'CHIMEDRUMS'?
