😂 We are fully embracing the mystery at this point…

If you happen to spot a mysterious blue question mark somewhere around the Festival of Skalds, don’t panic. It’s all part of the ongoing search for the legendary Lincoln.

Rumor has it:
❓ He’s been seen… somewhere.
🐐 He once ate an entire goat.
🤷‍♀️ Or so we’ve been told.

So if you hear someone ask, “Where’s Lincoln?” just smile, shrug dramatically, and join the investigation.

The mystery continues… and honestly, we’re here for it. 💙

If you happen to find us, we’ll be serving coffee, laughs, and absolutely zero confirmed sightings of Lincoln. 🩵☕🛻🩵😉
