Today, we have a Pure Loop puzzle. Draw a route that visits all empty cells without crossing itself or branching.

The completed grid. I hope you enjoyed it!
Sure, most people are celebrating Earth Day today, but a fun lesser-known holiday is National Jelly Bean Day! (By the way, google “national jelly bean day” – I was pleasantly surprised when I did.) I couldn’t find any details on the origin, though. My guess is that It started as an internet meme excuse to gorge on leftover Easter candy.
Anyway, today’s puzzle is Fobidoshi, using jelly beans on a grid, of course! I’ve started you with a few.
In 2008, Amtrak wanted to raise awareness about the history and benefits of rail travel. They declared National Train Day to fall on the Saturday closest to May 10th each year. May 10th is the anniversary of the pounding of the Golden Spike in Provost, Utah, which completed the first transcontinental railroad. Amtrak discontinued their endorsement of the holiday in 2015, but rail fans continue to celebrate.
In a Train Tracks puzzle, you must connect the two stations with a single rail route, including all the given tracks.
On this beautiful winter’s day, let’s celebrate with a dance in the snow! Today, this arrangement of snowmen will represent your dancing partners.
Draw a single loop which passes through every cell of the grid, turning every time you pass a snowman, and once between each pair.
